FREE INTERNET INFORMATION ON GROUND WATER

There is a wide variety of free information available on the internet concerning ground water in Oregon (e.g., state representatives, brochures, laws, regulations, etc.). The following are just a few web sites to get you started.

· ORS 537 — Oregon Water Resources Department (OWRD) Laws

http://landru.leg.state.or.us/ors/537.html

· OAR 690 — OWRD Rules

http://arcweb.sos.state.or.us/rules/OARS_600/OAR_690/690_tofc.html

Free Well Water Logs

Get free access to Oregon’s well log data base and get a copy of any Josephine County, Oregon well log with GRID-Web.

Water Rights & Water Well Permit

You probably knew that under Oregon law all ground water is considered a public resource, and with some exceptions, anyone intending to use ground water must first obtain a permit from the Oregon Water Resources Department (ORS 537.545). The neat thing is those of us with wells do not need a permit for the following uses (exemptions).

Group and single-family domestic use up to 15,000 gallons per day.

Stock watering.

Watering any lawn and/or non-commercial garden totaling one-half acre or less in area.

Down-hole heat exchangers.

Any single industrial or commercial development up to 5,000 gallons per day.

Free Assessor Maps
