Abstract

This case raised important questions about Congress' ability to reshape federal water policy and to decide who should receive federally subsidized water from government reclamation projects in the western states. The US Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit upheld a provision of the Reclamation Reform Act of 1982 that required water districts choosing not to comply with a 960‐acre limitation on land receiving federally subsidized water to pay the government's full cost of delivering the water.
