Water rights administration & water commissioners have become an increasingly common topic in our greater area over recent years. At times I have been asked about the training course that is available from the MT-DNRC for water commissioners, and this usually arises at a time after the course has already been held for that particular year. Because of this, I have contacted Mike Roberts at DNRC and he has sent me the schedule & agenda for the 2016 Water Commissioners Training course.
This course is not limited to water commissioners only, and can be beneficial to anyone involved with water rights & water distribution, including land owners, irrigators, water managers, and there have been Clerks of Court who have attended. I know that Tom Hatch attended when he was on our Board of Directors and found it very helpful.
This years course will be held in Helena on April 7th & 8th, 2016. There will also be a course given the following week in Hamilton, MT. Information with the location, agenda, and how to register can be viewed / downloaded / printed here.
