§ 33-5. Permit required for groundwater extraction for use outside county.
It shall be unlawful to extract groundwater underlying county for use of that groundwater so extracted, outside county without first obtaining a permit as provided in this chapter. A permit is not required pursuant to this section if the groundwater is used within the boundaries of either a district or on a contiguous parcel of any property owner which is in part located within county and in part in another county, where such extraction quantities and use are consistent with historical practices of the district or the property owner. The groundwater extractor shall have the burden of supporting an assertion of an historical practice with competent evidence.
