The department may not issue a water permit that allows for the appropriation of water from more than one water source. An appropriation from the main channel of a river and from a tributary of the river is an example of an appropriation from more than one water source. The department may issue a water permit that allows for points of diversion from different locations from the same water source, provided the department finds good cause for doing so.
