<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P STYLE="margin:0 0 6 0;"><SPAN STYLE="font-weight:bold;">This feature class is updated every business day from NDWR's Permit database.</SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 6 0;"><SPAN /><SPAN /></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 6 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>This dataset contains the points of diversion (POD) for water rights based on the coordinate location (XY) provided in the NDWR’s Permit Database. Since there can be multiple permits on the same POD site, this dataset contains duplicate point features where several permits may be stacked on top of each other spatially. The advantage to using this dataset is that all permits in NDWR’s Permit database are available. Use a filter or definition query to restrict the permits needed.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P /><P STYLE="margin:0 0 6 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>Background:</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 6 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>NDWR’s Permit Database was created in 1992. Water Right applications are entered into the database with the Township Range and Section (TRS) of the proposed place of use). The Permit Database was designed to automatically create the point of diversion (POD) based on the centroid of the TRS provided. </SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 6 0;"><SPAN>Starting in 2007, the Hydrology section began mapping PODs by the permit application description. Water rights points of diversion are mapped that contain one of the following: coordinate location (XY), bearing/distance based on a monument tie, application map that can be georeferenced, parcel number, or location description that can be identified on a topo map. The workflow for mapping PODs includes updating the auto-generated POD in the Permit Database to the location coordinates derived from mapping the application description. Some older water rights including Vested or Decreed Water Rights may not be mapped due to lack of sufficient location information. </SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 6 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>The Water Rights Section of NDWR is responsible for reviewing and approving water rights applications, for new appropriations and for changes to existing water rights, as well as evaluating and responding to protests of applications, approving subdivision dedications for water quantity, evaluating domestic well credits and relinquishments, issuing certificates for permitted water rights, conducting field investigations, and processing requests for extensions of time for filing proofs of completion and proofs of beneficial use.</SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 6 0;"><SPAN><SPAN>Please note that this POD feature class may not contain all water right information on a site or permit. The GIS datasets do not replace the need to review the Permit database and hard copy permit files and are intended for convenience in sharing information on a map, finding a location, seeing spatial patterns, and planning. </SPAN></SPAN></P><P STYLE="margin:0 0 6 0;"><SPAN /></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
