Service Description: This dataset is a representation of the boundaries of the original claims (or water-righted areas) sourced from the Carson River and tributaries, as identified by the U.S. District Court in the Alpine Decree of 1980. The intended use of these data is to assist in identifying the general locations of the water-righted areas, the associated claim number, and the source map produced by the Nevada Division of Water Resources (NDWR) and the Federal Water Master during the Carson River Appurtenance Mapping Project. This mapping project was initiated in mid-1990s and continued into the early 2000's, with the final results being a series of maps identifying the location, size, and associated parcels of each claim of the Alpine Decree, signed by the State Engineer and Federal Water Master. These maps are available on the NDWR website: https://water.nv.gov/RiverMapSearch.aspx. This GIS layer should not be considered a replacement of the signed maps and exists only as guide and starting point to identify the approximate locations of the water-righted areas in comparison to modern parcel boundaries. Further research is required to determine if a particular parcel originally had decreed water rights and has retained those rights. Please contact the Division of Water Resources for more information.
In order to produce a GIS depiction of the claims, the final signed maps were georeferenced to the most up-to-date version of the Douglas County and Carson City parcel datasets. Each claim and associated dry area was then digitized from the boundaries shown on the georeferenced map and attributed with the assigned claim number, a link to the claim on the NDWR Permit Database, the source map number, and a direct link the source map on the NDWR website. As this layer is strictly a visual representation, no attempt was made to match the acreages listed on the source map or in the decree for each claim.
The information in this GIS layer is derived by interpretations of georeferenced maps and is being provided for convenience only. Please refer to the actual decree documentation as such records may differ from the information provided herein. The Division of Water Resources is not responsible for errors, omissions, or accuracy of the information herein. There are no warranties, expressed or implied, including the warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose, accompanying this information. Please notify the Division of Water Resources of any errors.
