Book Synopsis Transferable Groundwater Rights by : Andreas N. Charalambous
Download or read book Transferable Groundwater Rights written by Andreas N. Charalambous and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-28 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The principle of transferable groundwater rights is that by making water rights capable of being traded in the market, water resources can be used more sustainably and efficiently. Groundwater would achieve its economic value, by switching from the high volume-low value irrigation, which is prevalent with many farmers, particularly in South Asia, to low volume-high value urban supply or the growing of intensive horticultural or cash crops. This book discusses transferable groundwater rights in their broader context. It starts with a detailed description of the physical aspects of groundwater, which non-technical readers should find useful, followed by a discussion of legal and economic aspects. Water transfers and the international experiences in transferable groundwater rights are dealt with in detail in two subsequent chapters. A model is presented to guide those involved in water resources management and planning in their decision process to introduce transferable groundwater rights and water rights trading. The author concludes that transferable groundwater rights potentially offer a better alternative to land-based water rights systems. However, he casts serious doubt on whether groundwater rights trading on its own can achieve water resources sustainability, environmental protection and social equity. Government intervention seems to be almost always needed to assist the water rights market and take responsibility for any of its adverse consequences.

Book Synopsis Modern Water Rights by : Stephen Hodgson
Download or read book Modern Water Rights written by Stephen Hodgson and published by Food & Agriculture Org.. This book was released on 2006 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vital importance of water to human activity is such that most societies and cultures have sought to establish legal rules over its use and allocation. In most jurisdictions legal rights to water have been linked to land tenure and ownership rights. A number of countries have recently undertaken substantive water law reforms, usually involving the introduction of formal and explicit water rights that clearly specify the volume of water that is subject to each right ("modern water rights"), together with institutional arrangements for their allocation, registration, monitoring and enforcement. Modern water rights are not intrinsically tied to specific land plots, are often transferable and available to be traded on a temporary or permament basis. This book reviews international experiences of the introduction and use of modern water rights. It is based on a survey of relevant primary and secondary legislation, published literature, internet sources and practical experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was authorized by LB 146 during the 90th session of the Nebraska Legislature. Due to recent changes in federal and state laws regarding surface water and groundwater transfers, concerns about future transfers needed to be assessed. The role the state should have in regulating and facilitating water transfers as well as the statutory framework necessary to protect the environment and the rights of individuals involved are addressed.

Book Synopsis The Capitalization of Incomplete Property Rights to the Groundwater Commons by : Gabriel S. Sampson
Download or read book The Capitalization of Incomplete Property Rights to the Groundwater Commons written by Gabriel S. Sampson and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Incomplete property rights are common across a range of natural resources such as fisheries and groundwater. The High Plains Aquifer region of Kansas provides one example of a complex but incomplete system of property rights. Rights to groundwater in Kansas are incomplete due to the physical characteristics of the resource, limited transferability between irrigators, and regulatory uncertainty. This paper takes a hedonic approach to understanding how three core features of prior appropriation water rights in Kansas--access, allocation, and seniority--confer value to irrigated farmland. All three water right features are priced into land values. Groundwater access rights confer an average land value premium of 71%, or $1,443/acre. Water rights having larger allocations and more seniority are more valued in the land market. The effect of seniority is consistent with more junior rights facing greater regulatory risk of curtailments. Our results indicate incomplete resource rights still confer value. Additionally, we use our empirical estimates to quantify the distributional costs of adopting modified groundwater governance regimes that ignore heterogeneity in allocation or seniority.

Book Synopsis Arizona Water Policy by : Bonnie G. Colby
Download or read book Arizona Water Policy written by Bonnie G. Colby and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-09-30 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central challenge for Arizona and many other arid regions in the world is keeping a sustainable water supply in the face of rapid population growth and other competing demands. This book highlights new approaches that Arizona has pioneered for managing its water needs. The state has burgeoning urban areas, large agricultural regions, water dependent habitats for endangered fish and wildlife, and a growing demand for water-based recreation. A multi-year drought and climate-related variability in water supply complicate the intense competition for water. Written by well-known Arizona water experts, the essays in this book address these issues from academic, professional, and policy perspectives that include economics, climatology, law, and engineering. Among the innovations explored in the book is Arizona‘s Groundwater Management Act. Arizona is not alone in its challenges. As one of the seven states in the Colorado River Basin that depend heavily on the river, Arizona must cooperate, and sometimes compete, with other state, tribal, and federal governments. One institution that furthers regional cooperation is the water bank, which encourages groundwater recharge of surplus surface water during wet years so that the water remains available during dry years. The Groundwater Management Act imposes conservation requirements and establishes planning and investment programs in renewable water supplies. The essays in Arizona Water Policy are accessible to a broad policy-oriented and nonacademic readership. The book explores Arizona‘s water management and extracts lessons that are important for arid and semi-arid areas worldwide.
