The Tale Of Two Lakes—A New Chapter In Washington Water Law, Anon

Washington Law Review

The State of Washington, through its Department of Game, purchased waterfront lots on Phantom and Ames Lakes and developed both properties into public fishing access areas. Large numbers of the public took advantage of these facilities, fishing from boats and the lake-shore. The two lakes, however, were not the kind found in true fishermen's dreams, isolated from civilization and surrounded by forests primeval. Both Phantom and Ames Lakes were surrounded by numerous residences, whose owners brought separate actions to enjoin the State from maintaining the public access areas, alleging nuisance and abuse of the lakes by the State's licensees. The …

Water Resources Planning Act Of 1965—An Experiment In Creative Federalism, Anon

Washington Law Review

The concept of "creative federalism"' is as elusive as it is new. As a descriptive term, "creative federalism" describes not what federalstate relations presently are but what they ought to be. In order to appreciate the concept it is necessary to understand the argument that governmental activities no longer revolve around a politics of issues but rather now center in a politics of problem-solving. The question no longer is: Is it to be done? Rather the inquiry is: How is it to be done? Creative federalism recognizes the need of asking state and local governments the "how to do it" …

Australian And American Water Allocation Systems Compared, Peter N. Davis

Faculty Publications

Amid general plenty, local and regional shortages of water have appeared in the eastern United States.1 These shortages are largely the result of intense concentrations of water demand on the more important rivers-rivers which, for the most part, are heavily polluted This problem is heightened by the fact that the location of major population and industrial centers has only partially depended on availability of water supplies. In many areas, local surface and ground water supplies are inadequate and water must be imported to make up the deficit." Moreover, demands on water supplies for supplementary irrigation, for hydro-electric power, and for …

Duquesne Law Review

The Supreme Court reaffirms its decision in United States v. Twin City Power Co., 350 U.S. 222 (1956) and holds that the government may disregard the value of land arising from the fact of riparian location in compensating the owner when fast lands are appropriated.

Recreational Rights And Titles To Beds On Western Lakes And Streams, Ralph W. Johnson, Russell A. Austin Jr.

Articles

What rights do riparians, their licensees, and the public have to use the small lakes and streams of the West when the beds are privately owned? This is the question which this Article attempts to answer. However, to do this, an analysis had to be made of which lake and stream beds were privately owned. Thus, the Article covers both the questions of title to beds and rights of surface use. This Article represents the first time that an effort has been made to systematically and comprehensively survey the lake and stream surface use cases of the Western part of …
