Welcome to Water Management Branch

Our Mission

To protect and manage all of the water resources of the Navajo Nation through creation, review, regulation and enforcement of sound management and planning policies, technical support of the Navajo Water Code, monitoring and collection of the data on all water resources, and technical support for water rights litigation and negotiations.

Goals and Objectives

• Provide an overview of water supply and management on the reservation, including descriptions of the tribal entities that play key roles.

• Identify water use and demand on the Navajo Nation.  Focus on the current level of water use and the anticipated water demands that are unmet.  Those unmet needs include specific categories of water use, as well as specific water management objectives.
