Belle Fourche River
33 water rights in Meade County, South Dakota, with priority dates from March 22, 1890 to May 6, 2025.
Listed in priority order. When Belle Fourche River runs short, the rights near the top of this list are filled first and the ones at the bottom are the first asked to stop. Rights on the same stream in a neighbouring county, or on connected groundwater, can sit in the same line; the state's water commissioner or district office has the full picture. Sources are matched by name within the county, so two different streams with the same name would share this page.
