<br />Boundaries and Water: Allocation and Use of a Shared Resource
<br />June 5-7, 1989
<br />
<br />Natural Resources Law Center _ University of Colorado School of Law
<br />
<br />Most of the major rivers in the Western United States
<br />are shared by two or more states, in many cases also
<br />with tribes, and in a few instances with another country.
<br />With ever-increasing demands on our limited water
<br />resources, issues relating to interjurisdictional allocation
<br />and use have become more prominent in recent years.
<br />This conference provides a general introduction to the
<br />basic legal principles governing the allocation and use
<br />of both ground and surface water between different gov-
<br />ernmental entities. Seven river basins will be examined
<br />to illustrate the types of issues raised in sharing the water
<br />resource and the legal and institutional responses that
<br />have resulted. Specific issues presented by interstate and
<br />interbasin transfers of water will be considered. Finally,
<br />opportunities for improved cooperation in basin-wide en-
<br />joyment of the water resource will be discussed.
<br />The speakers and panelists assembled for this major
<br />conference are among the country's leading experts in
<br />this area. Conference notebooks containing detailed
<br />outlines prepared by each of the speakers are provided
<br />to all attendees. Opportunity will be provided for ques-
<br />tions as well as for informal discussion.
