The management of Idaho's water resources is important to Idaho’s economy and is a major factor in business growth and economic development. IACI supports the conjunctive management of ground and surface waters and aquifer recharge when consistent with the constitutional doctrine of prior appropriation. IACI thus supports the ongoing implementation of the Comprehensive Aquifer Management Plan for the Eastern Snake Plain Aquifer as well as the efforts underway on the Rathdrum and Treasure Valley aquifers. The success of this plan should be a model for cooperation with regard to water management throughout Idaho in the future.
