Watermaster Affidavit of Inability to Appropriate or Beneficially Use Water

(1)

If a watermaster has reason to believe that circumstances exist that prevent a water right from being exercised, including but not limited to, the lands being covered by an impermeable surface or the diversion mechanism used to appropriate the water is no longer operable, the watermaster shall file an affidavit with the Water Resources Director.

(2)

The affidavit shall state:

(a)

The date and time the land or diversion mechanism or other evidence was inspected by the watermaster;

(b)

The names of all record owners of the land where the water right is appurtenant and the owners’ address as it appears in the county assessors’ records; and

(c)

The watermaster’s findings during the inspection that indicate the water right cannot be exercised.
