Kan. Admin. Regs. § 5-17-16 - Priority of use of water rights and permits
(a) If multiple
water rights or permits authorize the use of water from a single point of
diversion , the water shall be considered to be used in the order of priority
with the earliest priority first.
(b) If the water used exceeds the total
quantity of water authorized by the water rights and permits described in
subsection (a) that authorize water use from that point of diversion , all water
rights and permits under which the water was lawfully diverted shall be deemed
to be violated unless this presumption is rebutted by one or more of the water
right owners.
