The directors of the Little Blue Natural Resources District have ordered an immediate district wide stay on the construction of all high-capacity irrigation wells and the expansion of irrigated acres. It will remain in place indefinitely.
The stay specifically addressed the district’s area one which is the district’s largest area and the area where the aquifer is the thickest and most productive. Other areas of the district had been previously placed under stays.
The full text of the rules may be obtained at http://www.littlebluenrd.org or at the district office.
The district serves most of Adams County, and parts of Webster, Clay, Nuckolls, Fillmore and Jefferson counties.
