State Database (eWRIMS)
Not in state DB
This water right does not appear in California's eWRIMS database. The holder likely has not filed a Statement of Diversion and Use with the State Water Resources Control Board. Pre-1914 rights are only in eWRIMS if holders voluntarily filed — many have not, making these rights less visible to the state.
Uncertain Fields
- Township: No T/R given, only 'Goose Lake Valley'
- Source Name: Creek name partially illegible - appears Mayntle or Hoyntle Creek
- Claimant Name: Surname reads Mayntle, Meyette, or similar
