I have water rights in Utah and have been through the process you showed above. There are specific allocations for which different amounts must be used for different uses,, IE residents, ag, livestock and so forth.
I actually lost a portion of some water rights once because I had no live stock on the property at the time of the inspection.
You have to hire your own state licensed water engineer, and he makes the report and files it with the state.
As far as conservation pools they are more or less a gentleman’s agreement, and a gentleman is not going to let his neighbor go broke so he has a place to fish.
Just look at the charts on the link above and you can see it playing out in real time.
