45-416. Limitation on number of irrigated acres
A. If the director initiates the procedure for designating a subsequent active management area or the board of supervisors calls an election to establish an active management area, an irrigation user may irrigate within the proposed active management area only acres of land which were legally irrigated at any time during the five years preceding the date of the notice of the initiation of designation procedures or the call for the election.
B. The limitation on the acres which may be irrigated shall continue in effect until the director makes a final determination pursuant to section 45-414 or the final results of an election to establish an active management area pursuant to section 45-415 are certified by the board of supervisors of the county or counties in which the proposed subsequent active management area is located.
