TRANSFER Transfer of allotments, or portions of allotments, is the process by which the Board ot Directors is empowered. in the Conservancy District Act, to transfer water from the lands to which water has been allotted to other lands within the District and to discharge liens from the lands to which the water was first attached and to create liens upon tbe other lands to which water is transferred. As an example. allotment or water may have been made in 1939 to lands where an irrigation well was subsequently developed and the owner of the lands needs none, or only part, of the water allotment. DECLARATION OF QUOTAS 1. Since an acre-foot is deiined in all allotment contracts as being one-three-hundred-l'en-thous- andth (1/310,000) or the annual supply of water apportioned for distribution by the District, each year the Board of Directors will deter- mine the amount to be apportioned and will declare the same available in one or more Quotas as follows: Quota6 1st (Basic Quota) 2nd (Supplemental Quota, it available and H required) Additional Quotas (If required by special con- ditions) Declaration Date On or beiore March 31st On or betore July 15th On sllch dates as may be determined by the Board 2. Upon declaration of each Quota, the District will inform contract allottees of the quota of water deliverable under the allotment con- tracts. Example:-It the 1st or Basic Quota is 217,- 000 acre-feet, an allottee whose contract calls tor 100 acre-feet will have a tirst quota ol 217.000 divided by 310,000; than multiplied by 100, or 70 acre-leet. It the 2nd or Supplemen- tal Quota is declared and amounts to 93,000 acre-feet, the second quota. is computed in the same way and will be 30 acre-feet. While the example shows each "acf'8-foot unit" to be a fulI acre-foot. the unit will vary annual- ly depending upon the water supply available for distribution. 3.
