Position of the Western States Water Council on State Primacy Over Groundwater

States have exclusive authority over the allocation and administration of rights to the use of the groundwater located within their borders and are primarily responsible for allocating, protecting, managing and otherwise controlling the resource (Note: Concern was expressed at the meeting of the NM Legislature's Water and Natural Resources Committee in Las Cruces yesterday (July 30, 2012) regarding an apparent water grab by the Federal government.)
