520 |a The Colorado River basin states are bound together by something referred to by water law experts as the "Law of the River"--a collection of interstate compacts, treaties, federal acts, court decisions and administrative directives that collectively determine how the water of the Colorado is used and allocated. This has become a very hot topic--the river system is approaching a crisis because of drought and climate change, and the Bureau of Reclamation recently announced the first-ever planned cutbacks in Colorado River water deliveries to states in the lower basin. Everyone in the region is going to be increasingly concerned with these laws, including those in California, since it is part of the compact and the cities of Los Angeles and San Diego receive a great deal of water from there. Also, 2022 is the 100th anniversary of the Colorado River Compact, which is the foundation of the "Law of the River."--Publisher.
