Book Description
Excerpt from Acquirement of Water Rights in the Arkansas Valley in Colorado These statements, however, give but an incomplete idea of the num ber and scope of the commercial transactions affecting water. Such transactions frequently occur unaccompanied by land sales. There is commerce in water when ditches or canals are constructed for the car riage or conveyance of water and when reservoirs are constructed for the storage of water, for it is by Virtue of such construction and of expenditures therein involved that water rights are initiated. There is commerce in water when ditches or canals are cleaned, repaired, or operated, for expenditures in these ways are necessary for the ripen ing and maintaining of rights in water previously initiated by the construction of these works. There is commerce in water when ditches are used to carry or convey water for hire. There is com merce in water when ditch or reservoir companies are organized and their stock issued, when their stock is transferred or their bonds placed. Quite numerous, indeed, are the ditch and reservoir inter ests and water rights Which are sold and transferred by and to per sons owning no lands affected thereby.
