State Engineer

The Wyoming State Engineer's Office oversees the supervision and protection of both inter- and intra-state water resources in Wyoming. Committed to the principles of the prior appropriation doctrine, the office facilitates the appropriation, distribution, and beneficial use of water while adapting to the evolving needs of the state's residents.

In addition to its regulatory role, the State Engineer's Office collects, analyzes, and disseminates crucial water-related information to ensure effective management of Wyoming's water resources. Its comprehensive approach also includes overseeing groundwater monitoring, surface water management, and collaborating on various water-related studies and projects.
