Full Description

The author of this article addresses shortcomings of the riparian doctrine of water rights as well as the prior appropriation doctrine in view of the increasing pressure on water supplies. To solve the problem of shortages that will inevitably occur, market pricing, in lieu of costly water development projects, is advocated as a means of allocating water supplies for priority uses.
