Solving diverters’ headaches to provide peace of mind and help stay out of trouble.

Rights to Water Engineering, Inc., has solved diverters' headaches for 7 years as of 2021. Centered in Northern California, Rights to Water has worked all over the state. We evaluate flow measurement needs, water right documentation and calculation, Water Board filing needs, and more. Then, we file all relevant forms with the Water Board, and correct and update records for compliance. We recommend and install measurement devices, and download and process elevation, flow, and reservoir volume data for filing with the Water Board. As the former Chief of the Watermaster and Surface Water Sections at DWR in Red Bluff, Shawn helped people with water rights, flow measurement, and making sure diverters got their water allocation. As a Watermaster, Shawn regulated legal water rights, resolved conflicts between diverters, and helped keep agencies from interfering with ranching and farming businesses.

Water Board Says: Measure Your Reservoir. How?

The Water Board is contacting reservoir owners - maybe you too - and telling them that they have to comply with SB88 and Water Board regulations....

Biggest Diverter In The Galaxy!

I know and worked for the Biggest Diverter of Water In the Milky Way Galaxy! And this is not some alien from Marvel, DC, Star Trek, or any other alternate universe! How big is big? The numbers are, to borrow a word that I do know what it means: inconceivable! When I was still a bureaucrat, overseeing the Watermaster Service Section at the Department of Water Resources in Red Bluff, I was helping a lady on Hayfork Creek whose water was disappearing from Hay Fork Creek....

If you can't get help from the bureaucrats, do something they'll notice!

CalWATRS – improvement or just change?

How is the Water Board's CalWATRS database working out, and is it an improvement on eWRIMS? In summary, it's changed, and so far the changes take more of our time to enter and review information. The Initial Statement to enter new water rights is working poorly. The part of CalWATRS that works well is that there are a few really good folks that work with it, like Jeffrey Parks ([email protected]) and Carmen ([email protected])....

Explore the challenges and improvements of the Water Board's CalWATRS database, as users face hurdles compared to eWRIMS in submitting water rights.

Flow calculation Excel sheet for flume hourly data

How do you calculate hourly flows from flumes, weirs, and or***ces, when what you actually measure is water depths? That's how these devices work: the device creates an engineered curve, so that the depth at a certain distance from the entrance or exit gives an accurate flow. Getting the flow equation is simple enough - for the flume below, flow = 11.6948 * (depth + 0.0068932) ^ 1.64505....

Recent stuff – expert witness and added rectified maps

The last 12 months have been interesting. For the first time, I testified as an expert witness in a Superior Court trial. Thankfully I had time to prepare, so questions weren't a surprise and I had ready testimony and answers. I'll save details for when the trial is concluded. Also, I added scanned images and rectified maps to court decrees under the "Some Decrees & Maps" heading on the left sidebar of this blog....

If you have a circular headgate, how can you use that as an or***ce to measure flow? It's easy if the gate is fully open - or***ce equations from the USBR Water Measurement Manual can be used. The area of a circle is PI*r^2. Here are the or***ce equations for a rectangular headgate - the same equations are used for a circular headgate, or really a headgate of any shape:...

At Don Wright's WaterWrights news, his July 20 article explains that there is some hope for amendments to bills SB 389, AB 460, AB 1337. "Legislative committee consultant Alex Dominguez said he has been attending many, many meetings and has seen the opposition to the three big water rights bills: SB 389, AB 460 and AB 1337. He said AB 460’s author Assemblywoman Rebecca Bauer-Kahan or RBK, has dug her heels in and isn’t willing to work with the water community....

Three water rights bills are headed to the floor for votes, as of May 18, 2023. These bills propose to make water right holders prove their claims whenever the Water Board demands, inspect your diversion without your permission if the Water Board says it's for public health and safety, and make senior (riparian and pre-1914) water right holders curtail their water rights....
