Bill overview
This bill establishes provisions for water conservation in Nevada. It allows holders of perfected water rights to submit water conservation plans to the State Engineer for approval, outlining practices to reduce water use. The bill requires the State Engineer to reject permit applications that conflict with existing water rights, including those under conservation plans, and prohibits changes to water rights while a conservation plan is in effect. It also declares a state policy to promote efficient water use and development, and modifies forfeiture procedures to align with conservation plans.
