Short Description

The purpose of the instream flow rule for WRIA 5 is to establish a water right for instream flows to satisfy the statutory directive to protect the instream resources of fish, wildlife, water quality, navigation, recreation, scenic, aesthetic and other environmental values. Instream flow requirements will be conditioned by permit proviso on new water right applications, or applications to change existing water rights that affect sources of water covered by the proposed rule.
