GENERAL INFORMATION
The “District Summary of Reporting and Declaration Forms”
(Form 7-21SUMM-R) are used to tabulate and summarize the
Reclamation Reform Act of 1982 (RRA) reporting forms
submitted to this district by individuals, entities, and religious
or charitable organizations subject to prior law; and declaration
forms submitted by trusts, estates, public entities, and farm
operators located in prior law districts. The landholder
(direct or indirect owner or lessee) information and that of
certain farm operators is tabulated on the appropriate tabulation
sheets as follows:
• Tabulation A – provide information pertaining to individuals
and entities who hold (own or lease) land directly
• Tabulation B – provide information pertaining to trusts and
estates that hold land directly
• Tabulation C – provide information pertaining to public
entities that hold land directly
• Tabulation D – provide information pertaining to religious or
charitable organizations that hold land directly
• Tabulation E – identify errors, omissions, or discrepancies
related to landholders and farm operators
• Tabulation F – this optional form is used to provide
information pertaining to landholders who only hold land
indirectly
• Tabulation G – provide information pertaining to farm
operators and part owners of farm operators required to file
Form 7-21FARMOP
The summary form also summarizes information regarding
landholders in your district who are below the RRA forms
submittal threshold or who are above the RRA forms submittal
threshold and have not filed a form for the current water year.
You must annually submit an original Form 7-21SUMM-R.
Districts delivering any Reclamation irrigation water must also
submit tabulation sheets reflecting all landholders over the
RRA forms submittal threshold. Districts that do not anticipate
delivering any Reclamation irrigation water during this water year

must complete items 1-5, 13, and 14 of Form 7-21SUMM-R.
Additionally, if Reclamation irrigation water deliveries
commence after the summary form is submitted, a new summary
form with the appropriate tabulation sheets must be submitted
within 30 days of the date Reclamation irrigation water deliveries
commenced.
Any changes in the excess or full-cost acreage appearing on
Form 7-21SUMM-R must be certified to us within 30 calendar
days after the landholder reports the change to this district.
Type or print all answers in ink. You must initial and date any
crossouts and corrections. District name abbreviation(s) used
on this form must be spelled out on the form where the
abbreviation is used for the first time, or on a separate sheet
attached to this form. Reclamation retains your district’s
summary forms as a permanent record of RRA administration.
You must complete various tabulations before you complete the
main summary form. Use as many of the tabulations as
necessary to tabulate all of the information. You do not need to
submit a particular tabulation if your district does not have any
landholders to list on that tabulation. For instance, you do not
need to submit a Tabulation C for this water year if no public
entities report their landholdings to your district this year.
However, you must properly complete tabulation sheets for all
landholder forms received even if the landholder in question
does not receive Reclamation irrigation water in your district.
Placement of a landholder on a tabulation sheet is based on the
landholder or farm operator’s westwide landholdings (directly
or indirectly owned or leased). However, in completing the
appropriate tabulation sheets, only the acres in this district are
to be included.
The land that the landholders should be reporting is “irrigable
land” and “irrigation land.” See “General Information About
RRA Forms” (Form 7-21INFO) for the definitions of “irrigable
land,” “irrigation land,” and “irrigation water.” Other terms and
corresponding definitions that are specific to the RRA forms are:
•

“Land” or “acres” means irrigable or irrigation land.

•

“You” means the authorized district official completing
this form for the district.

•

“We,” “us,” “our,” or “Reclamation” means the Bureau
of Reclamation.

(c) The total number of acres in this district that the
landholder directly owns. Obtain this information
from item 20 of Form 7-2190, item 8 of
Form 7-2190EZ, or item 21 of Form 7-2191.
(d) The total number of acres in this district that the
landholder directly leases. Obtain this information
from item 23 of Form 7-2190, item 11 of
Form 7-2190EZ, or item 24 of Form 7-2191.
