Water rights reform debated for Yakima valley irrigation

The article outlines a proposed code to adjudicate eastern Washington water rights via state boards, limiting riparian claims to reasonable use and preventing litigation-heavy disputes. It covers storage regulation, rotation of water, and fair pricing, arguing reforms protect settlers and enable federal reclamation funding.
