Book Conflict on the Rio Grande

Download or read book Conflict on the Rio Grande written by Douglas R. Littlefield and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2012-11-27 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the Rio Grande since the late nineteenth century reflects the evolution of water-resource management in the West. It was here that the earliest interstate and international water-allocation problems pitted irrigators in southern New Mexico against farmers downstream in El Paso and Juarez, with the voluntary resolution of that conflict setting important precedents for national and international water law. In this first scholarly treatment of the politics of water law along the Rio Grande, Douglas R. Littlefield describes those early interstate and international water- apportionment conflicts and explains how they relate to the development of western water law and policy and to international relations with Mexico. Littlefield embraces environmental, legal, and social history to offer clear analyses of appropriation and riparian water rights doctrines, along with lucid accounts of court cases and laws. Examining events that led up to the 1904 settlement among U.S. and Mexican communities and the formation of the Rio Grande Compact in 1938, Littlefield describes how communities grappled over water issues as much with one another as with governmental authorities. Conflict on the Rio Grande reveals the transformation of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century law, traces changing attitudes about the role of government, and examines the ways these changes affected the use and eventual protection of natural resources. Rio Grande water policy, Littlefield shows, represents federalism at work—and shows the West, in one locale at least, coming to grips with its unique problems through negotiation and compromise.

[...] Juárez is already withdrawing water from the portion of the aquifers on the Mexican side of the border and is considering extending its withdrawals not only to drain aquifers to the south and west of the city, but also to drain the aquifers on the U. [...] On the institu- tional side, the treaty changed the commission's name to the Internat ional Boundary and Water Commiss ion (IBWC) and assigned to the IBWC the task of carrying out the principles of all past and present treaties. [...] Accordingly, on February 3, 1944, the United States and Mexico entered into a treaty relating to the "(u)tilization of the waters of the Colorado and Tijuana Rivers and of the Rio Grande."6 The 1944 treaty allocates to Mexico all of the waters reaching the Rio Grande from the San Juan and Alamo Rivers, two-thirds of the flow in the main channel of the Rio Grande from the Río Conchos and five small. [...] The treaty allocates to the United States all of the waters reach- ing the main channel of the Rio Grande from the Pecos and Devils Rivers and five smaller tributaries from the United States; one-third of the flow reaching the main channel of the river from the Río Conchos and the other above-mentioned tributaries from Mexico, providing that this third shall not be less, as an average amount in 15.
