Page 1 of 1 <br /><<Back <br />Colorado official warns of lawsuits over Colorado River <br />DENVER Colorado's top lawyer warns the state should be ready in case other states sue for more <br />water from the Colorado River, saying a loss could be devastating. <br />Colorado and six other states share water from the river under the 1922 Colorado River <br />Compact, but they are often at odds have been unable to agree on a plan to manage the river <br />during droughts. <br />Colorado Attorney General John Suthers persuaded the Legislature this year to allocate 759 - <br />thousand dollars to hire a lawyer to scan documents. Suthers told lawmakers, who ended their <br />2006 session Monday, that downstream states such as California and Arizona are expected to <br />pour (m) millions of dollars into getting every drop of water from the compact. <br />He said any gains they make would come at Colorado's expense. <br />Members of the Colorado River Compact are Arizona, California, Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, <br />Utah and Wyoming. <br />Copyright 2006 Associated Press.
