Priority Water Right Bill Before Solons
A Santa Fe-4 bill introduced by W. A. Hunter of San Juan county seeks $10,000 to sue Colorado in the U S Supreme Court over priority rights to La Plata River waters. San Juan farmers along the La Plata have irrigated for 40 years but settlement of the Ute reservation waters downstream disrupted irrigation, risking bankruptcy for many. The measure backs a legal challenge to resolve state rights and prioritize San Juan settlers when the case is prepared for the high court.
