Rules

Originally adopted on March 9, 1993, the South Plains UWCD rules remained unchanged for over six years.  However, changes in State water law, coupled with several dry years in the 90s, provided an incentive for Directors to update the policies and guidelines of the District.  In 1999 and in 2005, the rules were reviewed and several changes and additions were adopted.

Once again in 2007, the Directors began the process of reviewing the rules.  Changes in several areas were needed to update administrative procedures.  The changes were adopted and became effective October 6, 2009.
