WATER MEASUREMENT AND REPORTING CERTIFICATION COURSE (157KB) | Do you divert more than 10… or more than 100 acre feet of water? Senate Bill 88 requires that all water right holders who have previously diverted or intend to divert more than 10 acre-feet per year (riparian and pre-1914 claims), or are authorized to divert more than 10 acre-feet per year under a permit, license, or registration, to measure and report the water they divert. For diversion or storage greater than or equal to 100 acre feet annually, the installation and certification of measurement methods must be approved by an Engineer/Contractor/Professional. This course allows you to save this cost by being certified to carry out this process yourself. In addition to instruction, printed materials covered by the course fee will provide you with the notes necessary for installing and reporting your measurements to the state water board. |
