Navajo Nation Approves Costliest Colorado River Water Rights Settlement
May 24, 2024, 11:30 PM
The Navajo Nation Council has unanimously approved a proposed water rights settlement to secure Colorado River water for three Native American tribes. This agreement, led by the Navajo Nation, is poised to be the costliest water rights settlement in U.S. history. Navajo President Buu Nygren signed legislation to ensure water supplies from the Colorado River and other sources, providing more security for drought-stricken Arizona. The tribes are now pushing for Congress to consider and approve the settlement, emphasizing the critical importance of water rights for their future.
