The Department of Ecology adopted amendments to Wash. Admin. Code §173-517, Quilcene-Snow Instream Resources Protection and Watershed Management Program. This rule sets instream flows, closes or seasonally closes sub-basins to future withdrawals, establishes reserves of water for future use, specifies conditions of use for access to the reserves, and requires metering for all new withdrawals. http://www.ecy.wa.gov/laws-rules/activity/wac173517.html.
