The use of Oregon’s water resources are controlled by the Oregon Water Resources Department which allows use of available water for beneficial uses such as agriculture, industrial, domestic, recreation, and environmental enhancement. Water rights consulting encompasses the knowledge of regulations for allocating water resources to water users. We have several Certified Water Rights Examiners (CWRE) with a wide array of experience to obtain and maintain water rights.
