Key provisions require proof of reclamation before water rights attach, limit rights to land with at least half the irrigable area reclaimed, and define a final test of reclamation as actual crop growth or similar productive use. Delinquency in payments can lead to cancellation of water rights, and sub-lateral operations remain under federal control to ensure full water use by beneficiaries.
