Quantification of federal reserved water rights is always a complex and fact-intensive process.
Recently the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals issued its decision in a case in which the Court unequivocally held that under the well-established “Winters doctrine,” federal reserved water rights for an Indian reservation extend to groundwater when access to groundwater is necessary to fulfill the primary purpose of the reservation. Despite noting that it was “unable to find controlling federal appellate authority explicitly holding that the Winters doctrine applies to groundwater,” the Court concluded that it does.
