Title: 'EXISTENTIAL THREAT' TO WESTERN U.S. STATES New Obama water policy position overturns decades of practice

The Obama administration has launched a new battle over water rights that threatens not only the the economies of arid Western states, which largely voted against him in the 2008 election, but their very existence.

WND reported last month that the federal government was creating obstacles for Tombstone, Ariz., to restore its water supplies following last year’s forest fire and monsoon-triggered floods in the nearby mountains. The federal government said crews could not use machinery to rebuild pipelines and spring-water collection systems.

Ads by Google The End-Time is Here 2008 was God's last warning. 2012 is economic collapse & WW III www.the-end.com Now, a letter contradicting longstanding federal practice asserts a claim to water in arid Western states, such as Utah, Montana, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona and others, that supersedes all other authorities, including decisions by state water courts.

“Federal water rights are entitled to a form of protection that is broader than what may be provided to similarly situated state law rights holders,” states a letter from Julie Decker, the deputy state director in the U.S. Department of the Interior to the Arizona Department of Water Resources.

The letter was objecting to state plans to do a routine “Designation of Adequate Water Supply,” which reviews water resources, rights and uses when changes are proposed.

Decker’s letter said water is not “legally” available for some users who may want to develop property in the area, because “the expressed federal reserved water right created by Congress is senior to all junior water users who initiate uses after the date of the establishment of the reservation.”

Nick Dranias, who holds the Clarence J. and Katherine P. Duncan Chair for Constitutional Government and is director of the Joseph and Dorothy Donnelly Moller Center for Constitutional Government at the Goldwater Institute, called it an “existential threat to the Western states.”

The institute is fighting on behalf of Tombstone for its right to repair its water supply system and use the water.

A statement from the institute said the city of Tombstone “is no longer the only one fighting the federal government for water rights.”

“The latest move by the federal Bureau of Land Management appears to herald a bigger and much more comprehensive effort to seize water and access rights on federal lands throughout the Western states,” the statement said.

The newest dispute is the federal government’s letter concerning water rights in Arizona’s San Pedro Riparian watershed. The letter came in response to a request by Sierra Vista’s Pueblo del Sol Water Co., which claims water rights in the area but is being told it cannot use the water without the federal government’s permission.

“This new federal policy not only defies decades of deference to and accommodation of state sovereignty over water law, but it throws a noose around Arizona’s neck, for which water is life,” the institute said.

“The growing federal stranglehold over water rights in Arizona is a direct assault on state autonomy. There is perhaps no better way for the federal government to quell restive Western states, like Arizona, that dare to resist federal immigration, health care, and unionization policies.”

Dranias explained the situation to people in regions of the country where water is more plentiful.

“Water is the lifeblood of the arid Western states. Development would not exist without pretty intensive development of scarce water. That is only possible with the incentives created by ownership,” he said.

Without assurances that water is available, there is no possibility that economic development can occur, he said. In fact, some states have provisions, such as in Colorado, saying a homeowner cannot occupying a building unless a water right is documented for the structure.

He said it was only a few decades back that the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in a New Mexico case that the federal government deferred to states on water rights.

Now, however, the policy is being repudiated, threatening virtually every water user west of the Mississippi River.

Dranias cited the Tombstone dispute, in which federal officials won’t give the city permission to take equipment into a protected region to repair damage from a forest fire and monsoon- induced flooding. The city has obtained its water from the area since Wyatt Earp helped build a pipeline.

“The federal government doesn’t care about a direct threat to human life, a direct threat to property, a direct threat to the economy. It is will to risk all of that in pursuit of whatever they’re trying to claim as a superior position of water rights,” he said.

Tombstone, which can document through federal letters its ownership of the rights back 130 years, is in a far superior position to most water users in the West. Dranias told of Arizona ranchers who own specific spring-fed water rights but only leased rights-of-way for pipelines.

The federal government is demanding as a condition for renewing the pipeline permits that ranchers cede to the federal government all water ownership and rights, he said.

The radical “green,” or ecological, element appears to be playing a role, Dranias noted.

As part of the litigation over Tombstone’s water, he said, emails to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service from various activists cheered the fires and floods that destroyed Tombstone’s water supply system.

“Hooray, the water’s running free again,” he said the emails expressed.

“Any state like Arizona … is facing the same situation,” he said.

Dranias said the fight over Tombstone’s water simply cannot be lost, because of the implications that could ripple across the nation, even beyond the West.

The state has declared the Tombstone situation an emergency, but, even so, federal officials refuse to allow repairs. Losing the case could set a precedent that emergency measures needed to mitigate oil spills and other environmental problems might not be allowed because of restrictions by the federal government, he said.

Federal officials have declined to answer questions about the court case.

THIS is the messiah "king" OH-BAMA-BO trying to "punish" the states who hate him almost as much as he hates us.

This insane commie OH-BAMA-BO is trying to use his Chi-town way thuggery to intimidate the CONSERVATIVE western states.

It IS NOT going to work.

The feral gooberment must be brought to HEEL, and it's insane messiah "king" OH-BAMA-BO must be politically destroyed and defeated, or AMERICA DIES.

FISH or CUT F'ing BAIT time people!

Spoiled, stupid and ignorant, brain dead phuckwads, libTURD fools, tools, and idiots, are the real sickness; the messiah "king" obammy and his regime are only the symptoms.

The same bunch infesting the area as when I registered at Chris Simcox's Tombstone Tumbleweed newspaper as a Minuteman in April 2005. ACLU and assorted leftist k00ks. The sheriff used to come and run them off. We all enjoyed laughing at them. Dumb stuff like some pinche gringo leftie college kid, trying to impersonate a wetback, hoping we'd try to lynch them or something. ACLU "Admiral" harrowup's kin.

Is this the reconquista's revenge against Tombstone? If they can cut off water and run everyone out, the place is wide open for smuggling from Mexico.

I prefer the ACLU to be reactive to civil rights abuse, not pro-active.

When an ACLU member or unit engages in provocation that is denying someone else of their rights.

This is an argument that is as old as the ACLU.

I don't like bigots but they and you have a right to be as bigoted as you wish.

You step over the line when you interfere with anyone's rights.

You have a constitutional right to be a cracka, promote class warfare, spread racial hatred, try to legalize the invasion of the USA (would require a constitutional amendment), attempt to grant amnesty to criminals, engage in unnatural acts with yukons, and to be as anti-American as you like.

The Minutemen in conjunction with millions of patriotic Americans defeated your attempt to undermine US sovereignty and grant amnesty to illegal alien invaders. You Bush/McCain/Obama/Romney racist LaRaza reconquista's are losing! Tombstone and other towns across the nation will get their water and retain their God given rights in spite of you bigots. F' off and die!

I remember the first time I was in Tombstone, it was 1965. I was still in high school.

We always loved Arizona. Some of my best friends from the NAV were from Tucson.

I spent alot of time down there in the late 1970's. I remember that the hippies were buying Bisbee and getting rid of the police department then. You could buy a three bedroom house in Bisbee at the time for under $4K.

Arizona has been cowboys and wetbacks and hippies for as long as I can remember. I was never like it is NOW with everyone wanting to KILL each other.

Which is ENTIRELY the racist LEFT'S fault.

It wasn't perfect before, but people by and large got along pretty well.

Obama must be IMPEACHED AND TRIED FOR TREASON if he wins a second term or TRIED FOR TREASON if he does not.

This spy drone business, UN "gun contrtol" supposidly justified by "Fast and Forious" and now this direct attack on the LIFE BLOOD of the states that opposed him in the last election has gone beyond mere acts of Chi Town thuggery and has stepped into the relm of ACTS OF WAR AGAINST THE AMERICAN PEOPLE, the constitutional definition of TREASON.

No doubt, it is a major political decision, considering that India currently imports 80% of its crude oil from over 30 countries and relies on Iran for 12% of these imports.

Curiously, a huge "collateral" beneficiary is going to be the influential Indian corporate house Reliance. Pascual brought a proposal offering that Shale Gas in liquefied form could be supplied from the US to replace Iranian oil.
