Can The Farmers Sue Uncle Sam When The Bureau Of Reclamation Reduces Deliveries To The Water District?, Robert H. Abrams

Are farmers who have received water from an irrigation district "intended" third-party beneficiaries of that water district's service and repayment contracts with the United States Bureau of Reclamation and, therefore, within the scope of a waiver of sovereign immunity that would otherwise bar a suit by the farmers against the Bureau of Reclamation?

Professor Getches concludes that traditional instruments of water policy in the West--the beneficial use requirement …
