On May 12, 2015 the Nevada State Engineer will begin taking Proofs of Appropriation to determine the rights to the waters of Honey Lake Valley and Skedaddle Creek Valley and its tributaries.
On November 14, 2014, the State Engineer gave notice, through Order Number 1237, of the commencement of taking proofs of appropriation in Honey Lake Valley and Skedaddle Creek Valley. The Order states that all claimants must submit Proofs of Appropriation to the Nevada Division of Water Resources on or before July 18, 2015.
If you have pre-water code water uses in these areas, now is the time to submit your Proof of Appropriation (aka vested water right or vested claim). Our office can assist in determining your water right of use and/or claims in these valleys, as well as assist in preparing Proofs of Appropriation in accordance with the Nevada Revised Statutes.
