Water Rights and Temporary Use Authorizations
This mapping and reporting program allows you to view maps displaying the approximate location of water rights and reservations of water in a given area. Simple tabular reports display general information about the rights or reservations you may "select" on the map. There are some areas of the state for which we have NO digital water right location data. Water rights exist in these areas, but their location cannot be depicted on the map until they have been added to the digital database. Information about all current water rights (even those that cannot be displayed on the map) can be viewed in tabular reports.
Temporary water use authorizations cannot be viewed on a map, however, you can produce lists of active authorizations sorted by status date, file number or customer name. You can also display active authorizations located in a particular meridian, township, and range or issued in a particular month. The database containing authorization information is updated weekly on Saturday evenings.
Please read the disclaimer before using this program.
For general information on water rights, reservations of water, and temporary water use authorizations go to the DNR Water Resources Section Site.
