On February 18, 2009, the Colorado Supreme Court adopted revisions to Colorado Rule of Civil Procedure 90 and to numerous Uniform Local Rules for All State Water Court Divisions. The Colorado General Assembly also recently amended the statutory procedures for water court filing and service and for filing applications in one river basin. These rule changes are designed to increase the efficiency of the adjudication process, decrease costs, and ensure that Colorado water professionals maintain an ongoing commitment to the highest standards of professionalism.
