Water Usage e-Reporting

Water withdrawal permittees are required to document and report their total monthly water use if their permit contains a condition requiring water use reporting. Traditionally, MDE Water Supply Program would mail reporting forms to permittees to complete and then mail back to MDE to satisfy the permit requirements. Beginning June 30, 2024, permittees will now be able to submit reports electronically through our new e-Reporting portal site.
