Abstract
A recent Arizona Supreme Court decision reinforced the State's bifurcated system of water law that governs surface and groundwater by different legal doctrines. Using modem principles of hydrogeology, this article criticizes that decision and argues that its incoherence will have unfortunate environmental effects. The article also analyzes how the federal reserved rights doctrine will ultimately impose different rules concerning their relation between surface and groundwater.
