He argued two amendments seek Supreme Court rulings on river rights without honoring existing apportionment laws, potentially stalling or altering the project as it moves toward Senate debate. Breitenstein met with Arizona Senator McFarland and other basin officials to discuss the amendments and possible impacts on the project.
