In:1915.the Bureau_of Reclamation as Agent and Trustee of the Truckee -Carson
Irrigation District, acquired by condemnation and purchase certain rights, from
theTruckee River General Electric Company, predeoerssorsin interest lbf the Sierra
Pacific Power Company.' These rights were created under a -franchise granted by the
State of 'California tq the Donnercumber and Boon Company in 1874.. Under this
franchise a dam and -control works were constructed and put in operation in 1876.
Since 1876 and up to theipresent time water has;,been stored'in Lake. Tahoe
and ';released'th re -From under these'`rights. A new dam and control works were.
built and put in operation in 1915 as part of the Newlands Project. On the 21st
day of May, 1903 notices were posted and appropriation made at three places on the
Truckee River,'claimiig all unappropriated water of the Truckee River and`Lake
Tahoe up to 1500 c.f.s. to provide necessary water for the Newlands'Project.
Depending upon these appropriations and the rights acquired by purchase in 1915,
the water users of the Newlands Project, constructed irrigation work at a cost
of about .six million dollars. This water was first put to benefical use upon
completion of the Truckee Canal and Derby Dam in April, 1905. The water users
of, the_ Newlands Project maintain that -there are no unappropriated waters in the
Truckee. River or the Lake Tahoe Basin.
