Deviation from 40 CFR §35.3520(e)(2) for the Groundwater Source Development Project for Mores Creek Rim Ranches Water District, Idaho (2018) (PDF)(2 pp, 368 K, December 20, 2018)
This memo responds to the request for a deviation from 40 CFR Part 35.3520(e)(2), which prohibits DWSRF financing of water rights. The deviation will allow the state of Idaho to use DWSRF funds for a water rights purchase, which would then allow the Mores Creek Rim Ranches Water District to withdraw water from new shallow wells near Mores Creek.
