A Drainage Decision. Right to Divert Water on Own Land
Supreme Court ruling addresses water flow on private land. An owner may divert a running stream within a defined channel and return it unimpaired to his land. Owners are not liable for natural surface water on neighboring land unless they accumulate and discharge it in a volume causing increased damage. A landowner may dig a ditch on his land but must avoid removing lateral support. If a neighbor’s acts cause water quantities to enter the ditch and increase injury, apportionment limits recovery.
