Klamath Irrigation District, et al. v. United States, 227 P.3d 1145 (Ore. Sup. Ct. 2010)

(on certified question, court holds that 1905 state law giving water to the Klamath Irrigation Project does not give farmers a property interest in the federally owned water, but does not preclude it either; water rights cannot be separated from ownership of adjacent land; case now sent to U.S. Court of Appeals for Federal Circuit to decide whether farmers have a property right to the water and, if so, the value of the right).
