<metadata xml:lang="en"><idinfo><native>Microsoft Windows XP Version 5.1 (Build 2600) Service Pack 3; ESRI ArcCatalog 9.2.6.1500</native><descript><abstract>Places of Use (POU) represent where water is used from live flow, either surface water or ground water (ie springs, stream or a well), and put to beneficial use under a water right. A water right (WR) must have at least one use, and may have many uses. Uses may be consumptive, such as irrigation or domestic, or non-consumptive, such as power or instream flow. The WRURL attribute links to the water right report. For each WR, any or all points of diversion (POD) can serve any or all uses. 

Shapes for POUs were initially developed from GCDB as QQ or QQQ polygons based on the POU legal description. Over time, better locational information updates the POU shapes.

A water right (WR) can be in one or more of six processes or
stages:

Application for a new WR or transfer.

Permit for applicant to develop the water use.

License through which IDWR has approved final configuration and amounts.

Claim is a WR or Beneficial Use which has been claimed in an adjudication. 

Recommendation is what IDWR recommends to the court during an adjudication. A recommendation, when approved by the court, is decreed and supercedes its License, if one previously existed.

Transfer of a portion of the WR or claim. Generally through a change of ownership, or change in one or more elements of the WR or claim.</abstract><purpose>To represent general locations of places of use permitted for development in Idaho.</purpose></descript><citation><citeinfo><origin>IDWR</origin><pubdate>Current</pubdate><title>Permitted Places of Use for Water Development</title><geoform>vector digital data</geoform><othercit>Developed primarily by IDWR's Water Rights Section.</othercit></citeinfo></citation><timeperd><current>publication date</current><timeinfo><sngdate/></timeinfo></timeperd><status><progress>In work</progress><update>Continually</update></status><spdom><bounding><westbc>-114.360093</westbc><eastbc>-114.355156</eastbc><northbc>42.590965</northbc><southbc>42.588001</southbc></bounding></spdom><keywords><place><placekey>Idaho</placekey></place></keywords><accconst>None</accconst><useconst>None</useconst><ptcontac><cntinfo><cntaddr><address>322 E Front St</address><addrtype>mailing and physical address</addrtype><city>Boise</city><state>ID</state><postal>83720</postal><country>USA</country></cntaddr><cntaddr><addrtype>mailing and physical address</addrtype></cntaddr><cntperp><cntper>Michael Ciscell</cntper><cntorg>idaho Department of Water Resources</cntorg></cntperp><cntpos>Senior GIS Analyst</cntpos><cntvoice>208-287-4915</cntvoice><cntfax>208-287-6700</cntfax><cntemail>michael.ciscell@idwr.idaho.gov</cntemail><hours>8 AM - 5 PM MT</hours></cntinfo></ptcontac><datacred>IDWR</datacred><secinfo><secclass>Unclassified</secclass></secinfo></idinfo><dataIdInfo><envirDesc>Microsoft Windows XP Version 5.1 (Build 2600) Service Pack 3;
