Farmers Attorney Challenges Reclamation Chief Over Water Debt
William Morrow, attorney for the North Platte Valley Water Users, rebuts Dr Elwood Mead who says friction with the reclamation bureau is financial. Morrow insists the dispute centers on the bureau’s insistence on arrears payment and Congress backed a 1924 amendment guiding water deliveries to delinquents. He cites prior rate increases and delays, and argues the farmers acted in good faith to honor agreements.
