GENERAL INFORMATION
The “District Summary of Certification and Declaration
Forms” (Form 7-21SUMM-C) are used to tabulate and
summarize the Reclamation Reform Act of 1982 (RRA)
certification forms submitted to this district by individuals,
entities, religious or charitable organizations subject to the
discretionary provisions of the RRA; and declaration forms
submitted by trusts, estates, public entities, and farm operators
located in discretionary provisions 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-C.
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 and 13 and 14 of
Form 7-21SUMM-C. 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-C 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 certify 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. Note: If a landholder’s westwide
landholdings are more than 240 acres, but the land held
directly in this district is less than 240 acres, that landholder
must still be included on the appropriate tabulation sheet.
The land that the landholders should be certifying is “irrigable
land” and “irrigation land.” See the “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.

•

•

One for qualified recipients’ landholdings that total more
than 960 acres;

•

One for limited recipients’ landholdings that total more
than 40 acres through 320 acres;

•

One for limited recipients’ landholdings that total more
than 320 acres through 640 acres; and

•

One for limited recipients’ landholdings that total more
than 640 acres.

You do not have to prepare a Tabulation A for a particular
westwide landholding range if you do not have any
landholders with that range to summarize (e.g., limited
recipients over 640 acres).
RRA forms submitted by landholders whose westwide
landholdings are below your district’s RRA forms submittal
thresholds should not be tabulated here. Include information
from such RRA forms in item 12 of Form 7-21SUMM-C.

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