Description The Washington State Department of Ecology is proposing an amendment to Chapter 173-503 WAC. The main features of this proposed rule amendment include creating reservations of a limited amount of water for specific future uses that are not subject to the established instream flows, establishing closures for tributaries, and defining conditions for future water right permitting. The proposed rule amendment also changes previously interruptible water supplies into uninterruptible water supplies, and potentially reduces instream flow levels. It provides additional benefits to various out-of-stream water users, and also potentially reduces various environmental values.
