Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 7, July 1, 2024
The water resources of the Goose and Summer Lakes Basin are
				important for irrigation and instream aquatic life, fish life, recreation and
				wildlife uses. The waters also are used for domestic, municipal, industrial and
				stockwatering purposes. The protection and maintenance of water resources for
				these uses will promote the economic and general welfare of the people of the
				state. Therefore, it shall be the policy of the Commission to:
(1) Limit the potential for additional
			 conflict over inadequate supplies of water and to enhance watershed conditions
			 as needed to provide for instream and out-of-stream needs.
(2) Promote improvement of water quality and
			 quantity through protection and improvement of watershed conditions,
			 particularly those within riparian areas.
(3) Promote protection and restoration of the
			 quality of surface and ground water supplies from the effects of past and
			 future mining and waste disposal activities and to protect the public health
			 where contamination has occurred.
(4) Promote the improvement of watershed
			 conditions and facilities needed for enhanced fish and wildlife habitat and
			 recreational opportunities.
(5)
			 Cooperate with other states in the protection of existing users of water form
			 reductions in the quantity or quality of supplies.
(6) Promote the development and use of
			 geothermal resources where development is accomplished in a manner consistent
			 with conservation of the resource and without harming current water right
			 holders.
(7) Encourage the active
			 involvement of basin residents in all decisions affecting the availability and
			 quality of water in the area.
(8)
			 Ensure the perpetual availability of ground water resources by protecting the
			 resource from the demands of future uses where necessary.
