<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><DIV><P><SPAN>Since 1895, Nebraska has had an administrative system overseeing the orderly use of the State’s surface water resources. The Department of Water, Energy and Environment (DWEE) is the State agency authorized by Nebraska statutes to regulate surface waters. All diversions of surface water for irrigation, hydropower, industrial use, municipal use, domestic use, storage and other uses require a State permit. Recently, authority of the DWEE was broadened to include instream uses for recreation; fish and wildlife; induced ground water recharge for public water suppliers; and diversions by ground water irrigation wells located within 50 feet of the bank of the channel. Each permit has certain limitations and conditions associated with it. This publication is limited to discussion of natural flow permits granted to divert water from Nebraska’s streams.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV></DIV> |
