The Department of Water Resources (DWR) has a formal process in which it manages incoming Project Solicitation of Views (SOVs) and Environmental Review (ER) requests. The agency utilizes a central project review routing system so that each project goes to necessary experts within the agency for comments. These comments then get compiled in a response back to you.
How to Submit:
SOVs and ER requests should be submitted by one of the following two methods.
If submitting your request by mail, please address accordingly:
Department of Water Resources
C/O Project Review
1200 Memorial Highway
Bismarck, ND 58504
If submitting your request by email, please e-mail.
Timeline for Agency Response:
DWR’s goal is to turn reviews around as quickly as possible. However, a 30 day response time is requested. We also understand that in certain cases, your needs may be quicker and we will do our best to accommodate.
