Judge Belt Rules On Longmire Water Rights Decision
Judge Belt traveled from Spokane to assess how much water per acre is needed for irrigation of the Longmire ranch in the Wenus valley. He allows up to 1 inch per acre for the 480 acres, affirming the prior right of David Longmire whose ditch began the case in 1899. Those above the ranch will have to pass most of the water downstream.
