Review of Provisions of Code Pasted
by the Legislature.
By John H. Lewis, State Engineer.
A water law for Oregon, which is
believed to be the best among all the
states of the Union, became' effective
on February 24, 1909. Complete state
control is provided. No water right
can hereafter be acquired without com
pliance with this law. It abolishes the
old requirement of posting a notice on
the bank of the Btream. Hereafter,
the priority of all rights will be deter
mined by the date of receipt of an ap
plication in the office of the state engi
neer. If the application is defective,
it will be returned for correction with
out losing its priority.
The leading feature of this bill is
the limitation of franchises to the use
of water for power development to a
period of 40 years from the date of ap
plication, and the requirement that
reasonable fees be paid to the state in
all cases by those benefitted. . The
schedule of fees has been designed to
ultimately pay the entire cost of ad
ministration, thus relieving the gen
eral tax payer, who derives only an
indirect benefit through the added pros
perity resulting from increased development.
The payment to the state ol an an
nual license fee of 25 cents to $2 per
horse power hereafter appropriated
was provided by the Eaton bill, which
takes effect on May 22. This fee is to
be collected by the board of control
and adjusted from time to time, based
upon the percentage of power appro
priated which is put to beneficial use,
In brief, the new water code creates
a board of control, composed of the
state engineer and the division super
intendent of each of the two water di
visions into which the state has been
divided, and upon this board rests the
responsibility of determining and re
cording all water rights heretofore ini
tiated, the granting of new rights In
accordance with law, and the protec
tion of all water rights through a com
prehensive administrative system.
Before any protection can be granted
to vested rights under the new law.
such rights must first be determined
and recorded. Where numerous ditches
tan a stream, and ' especially if the
stream is long and the summer flow
limited, state protection is necessary,
The cost and time consumed in de
termining rights under the old law
was very great. The water users along
Silver creek, in Lake county, joined in
friendly suit to determine their
rights, so that a water master could
be employed to distribute the meager
supply, thus preventing annually re
curring disputes. Fourteen lawyers
were employed on only one side of this
-case. Kecently, the case was decided
by the Supreme court, -after nine years
in courts. During this time, one of
the contestants died, one became in
sane, and a number, tiring of the con
flict, sold to others.
If the experience ' of Wyoming is
any guide, the most complicated case
can probably be decided, under the
new law, within a year.
The cost is set out in the law and is
designed to be less than the cost of
an abstract to the land. For irrigation
rights, the cost will be fifteen cents
per acre for each acre for which a
water right is claimed up to one hun
dred acres, five cents from one hun
dred to one 'thousand inclusive,' and
one cent for each acre in excess of
one thousand acres. For power, the
cost will be twenty-five cents for each
theoretical horse power claimed, up to
and including one hundred, fifteen
cents from one hundred to one thou
sand, inclusive, five cents from one
thousand to two thousand, inclusive,
and two cents per horse power above
two thousand, the minimum fee in
either case to be two dollars and fifty
cents. For any other claim to water
the fee is five dollars.
The procedure is simple. A list of
questions is Bent to each claimant or
owner on the stream. He Is required,
under forfeiture of bis right, to answer
the questions which, together with a
survey of streams and land areas and
measurements of the water supply by
the state engineer, furnish aJl neces
sary information for an adiucation of
rights. The maps and all statements,
signed under oath before the superin
tendent, are submitted upon a given
day for examination by all interested
parties. If anyone thinks his neighbor
is making an eroneous or extravagent
claim, his temtimony can be contested,
By this procedure, all errors can be
corrected and, if necessary, further tes
timony taken. As soon as possible, an
order is entered by the board, determ
ining the rights. This order is put in
to execution at once and later filed with
the Circuit court for confirmation. If
no appeals are taken, the order is con
firmed. If the case is not reopened
within six months, the decree becomes
final.
Upon such final determination, water
right certificates are issued in accord
ance with the decree. These certifi
cates are then recorded in the county
records and bear tbe same relation to
the water title aa the patent from the
United States does Ut the land title,
The right of each user from the stream
or from a large ditch, will thus be de
termined. Tbe law makes the grant
u the use of water for irrigation ap
purtenant to the land irrigated. Tbe
title thereafter passes with the land,

Scott What make you think that

Mott Dad used to apeak of tbe trust

thus making it necessary to follow land
titles thereafter in abstracts.
No right to the use of water from
the streams of tbe state can hereafter
be acquired for any purpose without
compliance with law. For intelligent
use and development of our water re
sources some central office must be
provided, where a reliable record of all
water rights can be found. The di
version of water without the necessary
permit is made a misdemeanor.
The application should be accompan
ied by a fee of $3 for examining the
same, together with the additional
fees, depending upon the proposed use,
as follows :
For irrigation, graduated as follows:
15 cents per acre from 0 to 100 acres;
5 cents per acres from 100 to 1,000
acres; 1 cent per acre for each acre in
excess of 1,000. For power, graduat
ed as follows: 25 cents per horse
power from 0 to 100; 10 centa per
horse power from 100 to 1,000; 6 cents
per horse power in excess of 1,000.
For any other purposes, including ap
plications by municipaliteis, $5.
Three different forms are provided
for the appropriation of water; one to
be used in case of new appropriations.
another to be used where the appropri
ation is to be made by the enlargement
or extension of existing works and a
third form where the application is for
a permit to construct a reservoir and
impound surplus waters. A separate
application must be made for permit
to appropriate stored waters prior to
its application to beneficial use. This
application is made on the first form
mentioned above, and is then known as
a secondary permit, and must refer to
the primary permit, and to the reser
voir from which the water supply is to
be derived. These forms, together
with instructions, can be secured by
addressing the Btate engineer, Salem.
Work must commence within one
year from the date of application and
be completed within a reasonable time,
as fixed in the permit, not to exceed
five years.
If the water is applied to the bene
ficial use within the time allowed,
proof is taken of such fact by the di
vision superintendent and a certificate
issued the applicant by the board of
control.' This certificate is of the same
form as issued to early appropriates
upon determination of their rights, as
described above.
The new method of initiating water
rights may seem cumbersome as com
pared with the' old method, but it is
worth all it costs. The right, when
finally granted, is absolutely deter
mined as to all rights hereafter initi
ated. It will be determined as to all
the world, after a determination as
above outlined. This determination is
made without cost to the new appro-priator.
No large canal can be operated with
out one or more water masters to di
vide the water in accordance with the
rights and needs of the different later
als. Likewise, irrigation from public
streams cannot be a success without
water masters to regulate diversions.
The use of streams to convey stored
water to its place of use Was impossi
ble under the old law, and the con
struction of many reservoirs was thus
prevented.
As rights are determined under the
new law, districts are created and
water masters appointed, where ' de
manded by the water users, to enfore
the decrees of the board or of the
courts. This officer is accountable to
the division superintendent and pro
tects, not only the early rights, but al
so all new rights and the rights of res
ervoir owners.
When a headgate has been lawfully
closed to admit the proper quantity of
water, or shut entirely, it is a misde
meanor for the owner to disturb it.
If the gate has been wrongfully opened
during tbe night, the presence of moist
ure in the ditch in the morning is de
clared to be sufficient evidence to con
vict the owner ef unlawful use. .
With such an officer available, capi
tal will not hesitate to invest in stor
age works. The water, when released,
can and will be protected by the water
master, no matter how many ditches
intervene, and the owner permitted to
divert an equal amount, less that lost
by seepage and evaporation.
Tbe final object or tne new water
law is tbe protection of vested rights,
when determined, and to encourage
the development and use of our un
appropriated waters. This encourage
ment is provided in the definite pro
cedure for acquirement of new rights,
The fees are of no consequence to the
one who contemplates putting the
water to beneficial use. In fact, the
certainty of right, which is essential
as a basis for intelligent investment
on a large scale, is worth far more
than it costs. The old-time notice-
man, whose chief business under the
old law was to hold up the public, is
effectively discouraged by these fees,
The office of the board of control is
located at Salem. It is composed of
three members, appointed by the gov
ernor as follows: John H. Xewis,
state engineer, Salem, president; F.
M. Saxton, Baker City,. and H. L. IIol-
gate, Bonanza, Klamath county,
Messrs. Holgate :and saxton are re
spectively the division superintendents
of the Western and Eastern water di
visions. The board, or its respective
members, will be glad to assist the
public as far as possible under the new
code and will furnish information upon
request.
