Gould, Grant and Weber`s Cases and Materials on Water Law, 7th
The focus of the book is on water allocation, not on water quality regulation. Also includes water quality regulation and other environmental matters that affect water allocation. Retains the basic organization of the Fourth Edition with reorganization within each chapter to provide a clearer, more orderly presentation. Combines public rights, particularly the public trust doctrine, and environmental preservation. Environmental materials are expanded to include additional environmental legislation that affects water allocation and use, such as the Endangered Species Act.
