Continuing Aspect’s long tradition of supporting wine grape growers in Eastern Washington, on November 9th, Aspect’s Dan Haller will explain what you need to know to navigate water policy – acquiring, changing, and protecting water rights.

- Changing crops and spreading to add new acres
- Adding wells via changes or Showings of Compliance
- Protecting water rights from relinquishment
