SUMMARY: Included as Exhibit G-1 is a table listing all pending Water Use Credit Transfer applications. As shown, the table provides information on the originating site of the credit, the applicant, the receiving site, the jurisdiction in which the transfer would occur, the date the application was received, the status of the application, and the quantity of water proposed for transfer.
BACKGROUND: Water Use Credit Transfers are governed by District Rule 28. Transfers of Water Use Credits from an exsting commercial use to an expanding commercial use in the same jurisdiction were first allowed in December 1993. In September 1995, the District Rules were amended to also allow commercial water use credits to be transferred into a jurisdiction’s allocation. Once a Water Use Credit is transferred to a jurisdiction’s allocation, the water is available for use at the jurisdiction’s discretion and can be used for residential or commercial uses, including both new construction and remodels.

Notes:
* All complete applications are subject to
recordation of a deed restriction on the title of the originating property.
Securing the property owner’s authorization to record a notice on the title
that irrevocably extinguishes any right or entitlement to the actual water use,
water use capacity, or water credit which has been transferred is required to
complete a transfer. This step is taken
after the complete application is received and just prior to the actual
transfer of the Water Use Credits.
** “Unknown proposed use”
indicates that the application does not include sufficient data to characterize
the types and quantity of water use on the receiving site.
