| Abstract | Long Description |
The Department of Ecology (Ecology) is obligated under Chapters 90.82 and 90.54 RCW to set, and protect in-stream flows. The proposed rule, for the Entiat River Basin, sets instream flows that define flow levels needed for fish and all other instream values, and makes a reservation for beneficial use of 5 cfs. The 5 cfs is reserved as follows: 1 cfs for domestic use and stock watering, 3 cfs for commercial agriculture, and 1 cfs commercial/light industrial. This document covers three economic analyses: Ecology has estimated costs and benefits for the proposed rule and for alternatives, for Water Resource Inventory Area 46 (WRIA 46), which includes the Entiat River and tributaries and all land area that contributes to these water bodies. |
