Service Description: This feature class is updated every business day using Python scripts and the Permit database. Please disregard the "Date Updated" field as it does not keep in sync with DWR's internal enterprise geodatabase updates.
This dataset contains the points of diversion (POD) for water rights as mapped by the NDWR GIS Team. They are joined to the most recent permit associated with the POD.
Background:
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.
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.
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.
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.

Date Field Descriptions:
Permit Date—Date the permit was issued.
File Date—Date application was filed at the Division.
Sent for Publication—Date the notice that the application was filed was sent to the newspaper of record for publication.
Last Publication—The last date of publication of said notice in the paper; 30 days from this date is the last day for filing a protest to an application.
POC Filed Date—When a Proof of Completion of Work is accepted by this office, it becomes “filed” rather than just received. The filed date is the same as the received date.
