Show Notes
Arizona prepares for potential legal battle over Colorado River water rights, hiring Sullivan and Cromwell for defense. Without agreement among basin states, new federal guidelines could disproportionately impact Arizona. Upper basin states resist mandatory cuts, while Arizona and California propose reductions. Drought and climate change threaten water supply, with reservoirs like Lake Mead and Lake Powell at critically low levels. Arizonas lower-priority allocations put it at greater risk, prompting state lawmakers to allocate funds for potential litigation.
