Original Note:
This is misleading. In Idaho, water rights are based on the principle of prior appropriation, allowing senior water rights holders to have priority access to water over junior rights holders during water shortages. This has been in the state constitution for 100+ years https://legislature.idaho.gov/statutesrules/idstat/title42/ https://www.eastidahonews.com/2024/05/department-of-water-resources-director-issues-water-curtailment-order-for-many-eastern-idaho-users/ https://sos.idaho.gov/elect/stcon/article_XV.html
