From: Strasheim, Kerri <kstrasheim@mt.gov> Sent: Tuesday, February 6, 2024 12:21 PM To: Katie Sewell <ksewell@design5la.com>; Griffin Nielsen <GNielsen@BOZEMAN.NET> Subject: Turnrow Sub Review Katie - Thank you for the opportunity to review the Turnrow Subdivision. Four irrigation wells are planned. - Well #1 (phase 1 park) – 3.95 AF - Well #2 (open space east) – 1.47 AF - Well #3 (future park) – 2.53 AF - Well #4 (open space west) – 1.01 AF - Total use = 8.96 AF This does not exceed 10 AF. Each well cannot exceed 35 gallons per minute diversion rate. No permitting is required in advance. The City of Bozeman is providing all indoor uses. The City is responsible for ensuring that this use fits within existing water rights. Standard Language: In Clark Fork Coalition, et. al. v. DNRC, et. al., 2016 MT 229, 384 Mont. 503, 380 P.3d 771, the Montana Supreme Court concluded that the definition of “combined appropriation” in Admin. R. Mont. 36.12.101(13) was invalid. The Court reinstated the Department’s 1987 Rule defining “combined appropriation” as: “An appropriation of water from the same source aquifer by means of two or more groundwater developments, the purpose of which, in the department’s judgment, could have been accomplished by a single appropriation. Groundwater developments need not be physically connected nor have a common distribution system to be considered a “combined appropriation.” They can be separate developed springs or wells to separate parts of a project or development. Such wells and springs need not be developed simultaneously. They can be developed gradually or in increments. The amount of water appropriated from the entire project or development from these groundwater developments in the same source aquifer is the “combined appropriation.” Under this Rule, the Department interprets subdivisions that are pending before the Department of Environmental Quality for approval on October 17, 2014 or filed after that date to be a single project that can be accomplished by a single appropriation. Consequently, all wells in such a subdivision will be considered a “combined appropriation” for the purposes of Mont. Code Ann. 85-2-306. The only exception to this interpretation is that a subdivision which has received preliminary plat approval prior to October 17, 2014 will not be considered a project under the “combined appropriation” 1987 Rule; individual lots will still be evaluated under the 1987 Rule at the time of an application to the Department. 2015 Mont. Laws § 1, Ch. 221. This communication does not serve as a pre-approval for a water right.
