This dataset contains the places of use (POU) for water rights based on the polygon ID, joined to the most recent application with that polygon ID.<\/font><\/div>

<\/div>
Background:<\/span><\/div>

While NDWR\u2019s Permit Database was created in 1992, water rights mapping started in August 2007. Water right places of use are mapped from the description or map included with the permit application. If township-range-section and quarter-quarter descriptions are provided, boundary lines are traced from the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) dataset provided by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). County parcel maps may also be used to trace boundaries of water use. If the POU does not follow PLSS or county parcel boundaries, the application map is georeferenced and the area is plotted from the boundary on the map.  <\/span><\/p>

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><\/p>

Please note that this POU feature class may not contain all water right information on a site or permit.  <\/span>POUs with boundaries for an entire basin or county are not drawn as the large area makes it difficult to see other POUs.  POUs for stockwater permits were not consistently mapped before 2021.  The GIS Team is working to map active permits that may have been previously skipped.  <\/span>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><\/p>
