Envision’s Water Master Model (water rights) Based on Western Water Law, and a prior appropriation permit process Uses Oregon Water Resources Department (OWRD) Water Rights data sets i.Point of Diversion (POD) GIS layer ii.Place of Use (POU) GIS Layer iii.Individual Water Right’s Information Search (WRIS) in table format Relates OWRD data to the WW2100 IDU, and stream layers Satisfies daily demand in each IDU i.For diversions from streams, and wells* ii.For in-stream, irrigation, and municipal demands * - under construction
The IDU layer and a Water Right’s POD and POU For each IDU within a POU 1.Crop selection 2.ET estimate (demand) 3.Irrigation decision 4.Potential Diversion from a stream reach

Summation of daily Irrigation rates for 2011
Daily irrigation rate (WW2100 study area m 3 /sec) Other variables for daily water use per IDU: - Number of IDUs -Area of IDUs -Use (irrigation, municipal) -Source of diversion (well or stream)
