Water rights matters often require the resources
of an attorney-engineer team to
evaluate and develop water supplies successfully
within a legal and technical
framework,
and to resolve the problems often
encountered in such matters.

SWE has a proven record of close and
effective working relationships with water rights
attorneys. Members of
the staff have provided expert testimony on numerous occasions in
local,
district and federal courts. In addition, SWE has been involved with
interstate compact administration and evaluation of the future
development potential of water supplies in basins
where use is
restricted by interstate compact. |
