Long (SB 141) Act No. 285
Prior law allowed a person or entity to enter into a cooperative endeavor agreement to
withdraw running surface water.
Prior law required that a cooperative endeavor agreement to withdraw running surface water
will have an initial term not to exceed two years. Further required that no new cooperative
endeavor agreement can be entered into for which an application was received by DNR after
December 31, 2014.
New law retains prior law but extends the date for which an application can be received from
December 31, 2014, to December 31, 2016.
Prior law provided that a person or entity who enters into a cooperative endeavor agreement
to withdraw running surface waters may terminate such agreement after December 31, 2014.
New law retains prior law but extends the termination date from December 31, 2014, to
December 31, 2016.
Effective August 1, 2014.
