Who Owns the Water on Your Land? Montana Water Rights Explained
In this short, Kelly Whitmoyer explains the basics of Montana water rights and why understanding water ownership matters when buying or selling land. Kelly also discusses the Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation (DNRC) Notice of Intent (NOI) requirement for certain exempt wells. This is especially important for people who own bare land in Montana and plan to drill an exempt well, as well as property owners with wells that have not yet been put to beneficial use. If you’re buying Montana land, selling property, building a home, or considering an exempt well, understanding Montana’s water rights rules can help you know what questions to ask before moving forward.
