LEGAL AND INSTITUTIONAL CONSIDERATIONS <br /> <br />The documents included in "the Law of the River", which <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />apportion water and control the storage and release of Colorado <br /> <br />River water, consist of many contracts, statutes, an <br /> <br />3. <br /> <br /> <br />international treaty. federal regulations, interstate compacts <br /> <br />and a U. S. Supreme Court decree. To accomplish the delivery of <br />water from Colorado (or Utah Dr Wyoming) to San Diego County <br />contemplated in the Agreement will involve many changes to the <br /> <br />Law of the River. Since the changes will require concurrence by <br /> <br />up to seven states and other parties in those states who expect <br /> <br />to use the water described in the Agreement. there will be many <br /> <br />years of major legal battles in order to attempt to carry out <br /> <br />i <br /> <br />the terms of the Agreement. <br /> <br />~ <br /> <br />~ <br />, <br />i <br /> <br />< <br />
