Its purposes include the conservation of its scarce water resources; providing adequate water supplies; ensuring that the waters of the state's streams are available to meet the state's water requirements; and controlling its water resources in a manner that is in the best interest of the public. To fulfill these policy purposes, the state of Utah has entered into interstate compacts on several of the state's streams that flow outside the state. The state of Utah recognizes that under certain conditions the transportation of water for use outside the state may not be contrary to the conservation of Utah's waters; or the public welfare. This chapter governs application procedures and criteria for the approval of applications for: (1) the appropriation of water from sources within the state of Utah for use outside the state; and (2) permanent or temporary changes of point of diversion, place of use, or purpose of use of water that is: (a) appropriated from sources within the state of Utah; and (b) used, or proposed to be used, outside the state.
