The State Engineer is working to develop a groundwater management plan in Pahvant Valley. During this process, this web page will be used to share information with Pahvant Valley water users. Here we will post information about the hydrology of Pahvant Valley, the current water rights in the area, announcements of public meetings to be held, the material shared during previous public meetings, comments we receive from Pahvant Valley water users, and other information. Groundwater management plans are created and regulated under Statute 73-5-15 of Utah state law.
During this process we will be holding public meetings to present data and solicit public comment. The development and adoption of a plan will be a very public process and will require input from the water community. Public comments can be found on the webpages for the meetings listed below.
Several public meetings were held in the 1990s and early 2000s regarding the development of a Groundwater Mangement Plan:
