The decision affects how water entitlements are assigned along the Rio Grande region from Cochiti Dam to Socorro. Tri State Generation and Transmission Association argues the ruling backs its claim that the State Engineer’s plan exceeds legislative authority. D Antonio warns the ruling may hinder drought management next year and leave the state without tools to prioritize or curtail lower priority rights. The court invalidates a 2003 program aimed at speeding water entitlement determinations.
