DRAINAGE PROGRAM – Agricultural producers and landowners who
are concerned with the need to dispose of excess water can
initiate a group drainage project as well as a petitioned
drainage project through our office.
Drainage processes follow the Ohio Revised Code, sections 6131 or 1515.
The disposal of excess water continues to be very important from
an economic standpoint.
Water rights laws as they relate to the disposal of excess
water in rural and urban areas are very complex.
Existing laws have been under development for a long period of
time and continue to be reviewed and updated. |
