Opponents of the Southern Nevada Water Authority’s massive pipeline project are confident heading into next week’s hearing in White Pine County (NV) District Court challenging the water rights granted SNWA in Spring, Cave, Dry Lake, and Delamar Valleys. On June 13 and 14, Senior Judge Robert Estes will hear oral arguments concerning the Nevada State Engineer’s rulings from March 2012 permitting SNWA to pump and export to Las Vegas up to 61,127 acre feet of groundwater annually from Spring Valley and 22,861 acre feet per year from Cave, Dry Lake and Delamar Valleys. Day one will likely consider issues affecting all four valleys and those specific to Spring Valley. The second day is expected to focus on the other three basins. MORE: ow.ly/lK1Y5
