Groundwater and Surface Water Rights Unrelated
In New Mexico, members of the Corn family claimed groundwater rights relating back to claimed 1894 surface water rights from Arroyo del Macho and 1902 surface water rights from Salt Creek. Expert witnesses from both sides testified during trial that in the area where the Corns' land was situated, the Arroyo del Macho had always carried flood flows. Old reports described Salt Creek as an ephemeral stream. One Corn family member admitted that for the last 30 years, the water in Salt Creek consisted only of flood flows. The trial court ruled against the Corns' claim.
