On December 2, 2014, a contact information update- page was submitted to the division stating that the water rights are still individually owned, meaning the company does not own the water rights and the company does not issue shares of water. Instead, the company should be thought of as an organization that is set up to manage the affairs of distribution and delivery of the water, including the maintenance of the facilities. In the vernacular of the Weber River Decree, it equates to a MUTUAL ASSOCIATION, meaning the water right owners have grouped together in an association to mutually agree on a method or conceptual framework for the delivery of the water and maintenance of the delivery facilities and the taking care of the associated costs thereof.
