Water provided under sections 695e and 695i must follow California water-priority laws. Those sections do not allocate water.

All water supplied under sections 695e and 695i must follow California laws about water-delivery and water-use priorities and may not conflict with them. Nothing in sections 695d through 695j–1 is a water allocation.
