Excerpt from Organization of Water Users' Associations, 1913 Those who own lands under the project in excess of 160 acres or such smaller area as may be fixed by the Secretary as the maximum holding for land in private ownership are required to dispose of the excess so that at the time when the water is ready to be furnished to his land no one person holds more than the limit of irrigable land. In order to insure this adjustment it will be necessary for such persons to execute a contract, providing for the subdivision of their lands with the water users' association, or in such other manner as the Secretary of the Interior may direct.
