The 2019 Water Use Reports were mailed just before New Years. Water users must report usage by 5:00 p.m. on March 1, 2020 in order to avoid late fees of up to $1,000 per file number (excluding domestic use).
File Online at www.KSWaterUseReport.org
Please note that submitting a paper water use report will require a $20 per water right per report paper filing fee (excluding domestic use). The filing fee can be avoided by reporting water use online.
For help filing your report, contact your local field office or call 785-564-6638.

Important Note for Irrigation Water Use Reports
Irrigation paper reports will now be prescribed on 8.5″ by 11″ paper instead of the usual card stock. In January 2020, irrigators will receive the report in an envelope with “IRRIGATION REPORT ENCLOSED” printed on the front. Additionally, non-irrigation paper reports have experienced some minor updates.
During the printing of the irrigation water use report, an issue appeared wherein many reports’ PIN numbers had extra spaces between the third and fourth digits. The image below shows an example of this issue.
