| Description | The Washington Water Acquisition Program is a voluntary initiative offering monetary compensation for participants and is focused on increasing stream flows in basins experiencing chronic water shortages, due to a variety of reasons. Water rights acquired are put into the state trust water rights program, created by the Legislature, as a way for water right holders to voluntarily revert all or a portion of their existing right back to the state to hold in trust. | ||||
