OAR 690-380-6020
Extension of Time

(1)

An order authorizing a water right transfer sets a time limit in which to beneficially use the water. If the transfer is not completed within the time limit, the owner may file an application for an extension of time. The application shall contain sufficient information for the director to determine reasonable diligence in the attempt to complete the project within the initial time allowed.

(2)

If multiple receiving owners are involved, a separate application is required from each receiving owner requesting an extension.

(3)

Extensions are granted for one year, from October 1 to October 1 of each year. An extension for up to five years may be granted for transfers involving municipal or quasi-municipal use. Extensions may be granted for longer time if the applicant can justify the need for a longer period of time by submission of pertinent evidence.

(4)

In reviewing an application for an extension of time, the director shall determine whether reasonable diligence was made by the applicant to complete the project within the time period established under OAR 690-380-5140 (Time for Completion). Reasonable diligence shall include, but is not limited to:

(a)

The purchase and installation of water delivery system;

(b)

The expansion or restructuring of the existing delivery system;

(c)

Actual use of a portion of the water according to the terms of the transfer order; or

(d)

For municipal, quasi-municipal and group domestic uses only, the continued increase in population and number of service connections.

(5)

Applications for succeeding extensions shall show reasonable diligence within the time allowed by the previous extension and shall be subject to the Department review based on section (4) of this rule.
