the Supreme Court, ruling in Andrus v. Charlestone Stone Products Co. that Federal mining law does not consider water to be a locatable and claimable mineral, upheld historical positions. Water rights have traditionally been subject to local and state rather than Federal laws. Support for this decision can be found in related legal and pragmatic decisions and represent a victory for states seeking to protect their natural resources.
