Endangered Species Protection Is In Public Interest
Protection of a threatened and endangered species, the whooping crane, was found to be in the public interest, supporting a decision of Nebraska's state Department of Water Resources (DWR) to deny a permit to divert unappropriated water for irrigation. The Central Platte National Resources District filed numerous applications for permits allowing it to divert certain waters from the Platte River and a tributary so it might store the diverted waters and thus replenish the supplies of irrigation waters and improve water quality. The DWR denied the permits on the basis of evidence submitted that the diversion would affect 11 endangered and threatened species, including the whooping crane.
