Do tax-exempt organizations have to pay the assessed water right fee?
A. There is no exemption for tax-exempt entities (tax exempt entities include: 501(c)(3) and 501(c)(4) organizations, cities, counties, water districts, irrigation districts, the USBR, and DWR, among others). Any entity capable of owning property (in other words any entity capable of holding a water right) is subject to the fee.
