Our challenge is to ensure sufficient water supplies to meet existing and future beneficial

uses of water, recognizing that water supply in Oregon is limited naturally by the climate.

 

The Department´s commitments and actions, include the use of technology to expedite regulatory processes, the development of easy to understand information and regulations (forms, orders, letters, and rules), and a flexible, problem-solving approach to regulatory matters.

 

The Department´s goal is to build a stronger link to our Oregon Benchmark (OBM79), our agency mission and goals, and high-level performance "outcomes."
