Public workshops on the Humboldt River Modeling Efforts will be held in January 2019! The Nevada Division of Water Resources (“NDWR”), in conjunction with US Geological Survey and Desert Research Institute, will be presenting the latest information in the ongoing studies of the Humboldt River Basins. Times and locations for the public workshops can be found in NDWR’s official announcement.
The workshops are held for the general public and attendance is encouraged as officials work to prepare a conjunctive management plan for administration and management of groundwater and surface water of the Humboldt River and its tributaries.
Humboldt River Modeling workshops are held on an annual basis to update the public regarding governance and use of the river system. A study began in 2015 and the workshops are used to update and provide information to the draft report, with input from the public water users as well as hydrology and geology specialists at NDWR, the US Geological Survey, and the Desert Research Institute. A draft of the final report is expected to be prepared by the first quarter of 2019.
