Truckee Carson Irrigation District (TCID) water rights are t<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>he remaining water after all the Delta\u2019s (changes) have occurred. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>Water rights include vested (pre-contract), contract, permit, retirement and farm units. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>A Pre-Contract or an original Contract, Permit, or Farm Unit grants a landowner a specific amount of water to irrigate their land.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

When all the Water-Right changes have been made and the regenerate tool has regenerated all the polygons, the resultant acreage will show the remaining acreage for the contract or permit. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>Points of Diversion: The POD\u2019s used to irrigate the water righted land are Lahontan Dam or Derby Dam.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

Places of Use: The application map is georeferenced to obtain the POU boundary. County parcel maps are also used to trace boundaries of water use for farm units. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

Water Rights were given four different kinds of names by the mapping team.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

  1. Vested rights were identified by the numbers given to the farmers to name their water usage for farming production prior to July 2<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>nd<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>, 1902. By adding a <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>\u2018<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>V<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>\u2019<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>to their numbers (Example <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>01069.0.v<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>), the mapping team was able to identify which Water Rights were established before contracts. We call the vested water rights <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>\u2018<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>Pre-Contract<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>\u2019<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>water rights, meaning they were established before contracts came into effect. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI>

  2. Contract numbers were issued by the Bureau of Reclamation (BOR) after July 2<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>nd<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>, 1902 and prior to 1926. Our team has added a P (for prior) before the number that the BOR assigned (Example <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>P311.0<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>) to set them apart from the contracts issued after 1926 by Truckee Carson Irrigation District (TCID) (Example<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>311.1)<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI>

  3. Permit numbers were issued by Nevada Department of Water Resources (NDWR) starting in 1984. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI>

  4. Farm Units were established in <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>DATE<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>and given the same number as a change permit by NDWR.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P><\/LI><\/OL>

    Resources, Agriculture, and Mining<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    CHAPTER..........<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    AN ACT relating to water; revising provisions relating to the use of<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    water on certain lands in a federal reclamation project; and<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    providing other matters properly relating thereto.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    Legislative Counsel\u2019s Digest:<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    Under existing law, a water right is generally considered to be appurtenant to,<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    or belong to, the land where it is used. Existing law provides that a surface water<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    right acquired by a water user in a federal reclamation project is considered under<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    certain circumstances to be appurtenant to an entire farm rather than particular land<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    within the farm. In this context, a \u201cfarm\u201d is defined to be a tract of land that is<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    under the same ownership and primarily used for agricultural purposes. (NRS<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    533.040) This bill revises the definition to include two or more tracts of land that<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    are owned or leased by the same person and are primarily used for agricultural<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    purposes, regardless of whether the tracts are contiguous to one another.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    EXPLANATION \u2013 Matter in <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>bolded italics <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>is new; matter between brackets <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>[<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>omitted material<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>] <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>is material to be omitted.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEVADA, REPRESENTED IN<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    SENATE AND ASSEMBLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    Section 1. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>NRS 533.040 is hereby amended to read as follows:<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    533.040 1. Except as otherwise provided in this section, any<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    water used in this State for beneficial purposes shall be deemed to<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    remain appurtenant to the place of use.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    2. If at any time it is impracticable to use water beneficially or<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    economically at the place to which it is appurtenant, the right may<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    be severed from the place of use and be simultaneously transferred<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    and become appurtenant to another place of use, in the manner<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    provided in this chapter, without losing priority of right.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    3. The provisions of this section do not apply to a ditch or<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    canal company that appropriates water for diversion and<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    transmission to the lands of private persons for an annual charge.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    4. For the purposes of this section, a surface water right<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    acquired by a water user in a federal reclamation project may be<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    considered appurtenant to an entire farm, instead of specifically<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    identifiable land within that farm, upon the granting of a permit for<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    the change of place of use by the State Engineer which designates<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    the place of use as the entire farm. The quantity of water available<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    for use on that farm must not exceed the total amount determined by<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    applicable decrees as designated in the permit granted by the State<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    Engineer.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    5. For the purposes of this section, a water right acquired for<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    watering livestock by a person who owns, leases or otherwise<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    possesses a legal or proprietary interest in the livestock being<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    watered is appurtenant to:<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    (a) The land on which the livestock is watered if the land is<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    owned by the person who possesses a legal or proprietary interest in<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    the livestock; or<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    (b) Other land which is located in this State, is benefited by the<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    livestock being watered and is capable of being used in conjunction<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    with the livestock operation of the person who owns the land if that<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    land is owned by the person who possesses the legal or proprietary<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    interest in the livestock being watered.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    6. The provisions of subsection 5 must not be construed:<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    (a) To impair a vested right or other existing water right<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    established before June 12, 2003, of a person to the use of water for<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    the purpose of watering livestock; or<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    (b) To prevent any transfer of ownership of a water right for the<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    purpose of watering livestock.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    7. As used in this section, \u201cfarm\u201d means a tract of land <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>[<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>under<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    the same ownership<\/SPAN><\/SPAN>] <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>that is <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>owned or leased by the same person<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    and is <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>primarily used for agricultural purposes. <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>The term includes<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    two or more such tracts of land, regardless of whether the tracts<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>

    are contiguous to one another.<\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P>
