Water Rights
Medford Water holds three water rights equaling 67 cubic feet per second (cfs) on the Big Butte Springs; this is our primary water source. The Oregon Legislature closed Big Butte Springs drainage from any additional appropriation in 1925 and gave all additional water to the City of Medford. The water begins as snowmelt on Mt. McLoughlin, and percolates through volcanic soils to emerge again as springs.
Medford Water holds one water right equaling 100 cubic feet per second (cfs) on the Rogue River, our secondary source.
