[Preliminary Program]
The Future of Reserved Water Rights
The Winters Centennial:
Will Its Commitment to Justice Endure?
June 9-12, 2008

One hundred years after the landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision in Winters
v. United States established a right to water to support Native
American-and federal-reservations, is there enough water to fulfill the
promise of Winters? Many cases that would define Indian and federal water
rights have not been settled and others have not yet been filed. Further,
the federal funds that have been an important part of past successful
settlements are not being made available even for pending cases. This
symposium will provide a history of the Winters case, take a hard look at
the current state of the doctrine, and foster a dialogue on fair and
equitable resolution of pending and future claims.
