Water lawsuits to linger in Kansas AG says
Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline warned that legal costs from water disputes with Colorado and Nebraska will persist. His office reported paying Montgomery & Andrews nearly 471000 for 2004 to 2005 work on the interstate Arkansas River case, which Kansas won a Supreme Court ruling in 1995. Colorado had paid Kansas about 35 million last year as it reduced amounts taken from the Arkansas.
