Orchard Mesa Irrigation Loses Conditional Water Decree
The Colorado Supreme Court ruled 7-0 that Orchard Mesa Irrigation District failed due diligence to develop 100 cfs from the Colorado River and lost its conditional decree. The decision upheld Water Court findings that water is available for junior rights and could be diverted upstream by Northern Colorado and Denver. Judge Darrow’s findings cited 50 years with no irrigation steps, noting only a hope to use the water.
