Thankfully water doesn't follow state lines very well. California's early history on this isn't good, but at least now its a force to be reckoned with on these things. Unfortunately, the efforts to draw down Spring Valley in Lincoln County, don't get that protection.

John W. Powell (the Colorado River explorer, and one of the founding fathers of the USGS) said that state lines in the mountain West should be drawn along watershed boundaries. He said something to the effect of, "You can make work for surveyors, or you can make work for lawyers." Well, of course Congress made work for lawyers. This is America, after all! ;)
