  18. Four Options • Include the supplemental right/permit/GR in the application, if the intent is to move with primary right. • Voluntarily cancel it. • Move supplemental right separately to a “like” primary. • Withdraw application.

  19. Option #1 Include the layered supplemental in the transfer for concurrent changes.

  20. Option #2 • Voluntary cancellation • Submission of a voluntary cancellation affidavit. • Cancellation will be incorporated into the transfer order. • If involved in permit issuance, separate order cancelling portion/entirety of right that “overlaps” new permit will be issued. • If involved in certificate issuance, separate order cancelling will be generated.

  21. Option #3 • Move supplemental to a “like” primary • . . . may be moved separately from the associated irrigation water right if another primary irrigation water right with similar reliability is appurtenant to the lands to which the supplemental right is to be moved. (OAR-690-380-2240)
