Upper Republican NRD rules also address transfer of allocation

Irrigators in the Upper Republican Natural Resources district apparently have no issues with the latest rules adopted by the board.
    No public testimony was offered during the public hearing on the rule proposals May 8. As a result, the board passed the new rules and regulations unanimously.
    The fact that the next five-year allocation will remain the same as the last five years represents a primary reason why the new proposal drew no input or opposition.
    In the new rules, the board addressed rules on transfers of allocation as well.

5-year, 65-inch allocation
    Irrigators will again have a base allocation of 65 inches of consumptive use over the next five years. While that equates to an annual amount of 13 inches, irrigators can use more or less in any particular year.
    The irrigator can exceed the allocation up to 7.5 inches in the allocation period, provided they have carryforward on the respective tracts.
