Snake River Basin Adjudication 1986 - Admin. Basin 79

The Snake River Basin Adjudication is a massive administrative and legal process designed to sort out more than 170,00 individual claims for water rights for water from the Snake River and its many tributaries. It is scheduled to be completed in the year 2005. The adjudication effort focuses on one basin at a time. Each claimant of an irrigation right receives a color aerial photograph complete with an outline of the department's recommendation for the place of use. The mailing includes a request for notificaion of any changes desired by the claimiant, and an invitation to an explanatory public meeting. These color IR aerial photographs are used in this process.

蛇河盆地水权确权程序（Snake River Basin Adjudication）是一项大规模行政与法律程序，旨在厘清蛇河及其众多支流水资源相关的超过17万项个人水权主张。该程序原计划于2005年完成。本次确权程序采用逐流域推进的实施模式。每位灌溉用水权主张者均会收到一份彩色航空影像，影像上标注有主管部门出具的推荐用水地点轮廓。本次邮寄的材料包含一份请求主张人告知其希望作出的任何变更的函件，以及一场释明性公开会议的参会邀请。本确权程序所使用的正是此类彩色红外（IR）航空影像。
