Legal Institutions For The Allocation Of Water And Their Impact On Coal Conversion Operations In Kentucky, Richard C. Ausness, Gary W. Callahan, Steven W. Dills, Bill H. Flynn, John S. Gillig

KWRRI Research Reports

The conversion of coal into other types of fuel through gasification and liquefaction has been proposed as a means of coping with America's increasing energy needs. Coal conversion plants require large quantities of water for cooling purposes and for use as a raw material.

There are three types of water allocation presently used in the United States, riparianism, prior appropriation, and administrative permit systems. The common law riparian system is undesirable because under it water rights are insecure and subject to locational use restrictions. Prior appropriation is better, but the permanent water right created under this system results in excessive …

The Law Of Water Allocation In Kentucky, Richard C. Ausness, Bill H. Flynn

KWRRI Research Reports

This study discusses navigability concepts, consumptive rights to surface and ground waters, the disposal of diffused surface waters and the administration of Kentucky's statutory water allocation system.

Federal regulatory powers are based on navigability as is state ownership of submerged lands. Kentucky uses the ebb-and-flow test of navigability to determine title to submerged lands but uses a navigability-in-fact test to determine the scope of state regulatory authority. Consumptive uses of water in Kentucky are governed by the riparian landowner to use as much water as he needs as long as his use does not interfere with the legitimate uses of …

Water And Watercourses—Federal Jurisdiction—Federal Common Law Determines Ownership Of Re-Exposed Navigable River Beds—Bonelli Cattle Co. V. Arizona, 414 U.S. 313 (1973), Richard A. Hopp

Washington Law Review

Plaintiff Bonelli Cattle Company (Bonelli) brought a quiet title action against the State of Arizona to determine ownership of newly reemerged land purchased by Bonelli in 1955 from a federal grantee, the Santa Fe Railroad. When the Santa Fe obtained the parcel in 1910, it comprised 280 acres of dry land. In that year the Colorado River, a navigable stream, formed the boundary between Arizona and Nevada and flowed more than one-quarter mile to the west. However, the Colorado moved slowly eastward so that in 1955 it covered all but 60 acres of the parcel. The submerged portion was re-exposed …

Drinking Water Regulation, Nicholas A. Robinson

Elisabeth Haub School of Law Faculty Publications

As 1974 drew to a close, President Ford signed legislation extending federal jurisdiction into a new realm: the quality of public drinking water supplies. This Safe Drinking Water Act is an interesting piece of legislation. It probably will become one more bit of data for the MOLDS System, and the Act, fortunately, has provisions which meet some of the criteria which Luther Avery set forth. Before describing the Act, I want to present a few statistics and background facts about this innocent bit of H2O.
