New Forms to Apply for Extension of Time for Filing Proof of Completion of Work and for Application of Water to Beneficial Use

There are new forms for Application for Extension of Time for Filing Proof of Completion of
Work (POC) and Application for Extension of Time for Filing Proof of Application of Water to Beneficial Use (PBU). The new forms for Application of Extension of Time for filing PBU are differentiated by manner of use (MOU). Additional questions requesting more information have been added to fulfill the requirements of NAC 533 and to provide Nevada Division of Water Resources (DWR) with the necessary information to consider an Application for Extension of Time for Filing Proof of Completion of Work and Application for Extension of Time for Filing Proof of Application of Water to Beneficial Use. For any water right requiring a totalizing meter or measuring device as part of the terms of the permits, the Permittee will be expected to submit accurate measurements of water placed to beneficial use, and this information is necessary for any PBU extension form to be considered. Please use the correct form based upon the MOU of the Permit you are seeking to extend. Previous forms will no longer be accepted after December 31, 2022.

The new forms can be found in the Forms page on DWR’s website http://water.nv.gov/waterforms.aspx?water=Water%20Right or at the DWR office. You can also contact DWR at (775) 684-2800 with questions about which form to use.
