by itself. Ever hear of the term-"the straw that broke the camel's back?"
Just because they want to assume existing water rights does not mean the existing rights are being used.
As an aside, this area is home to these people and they stick it out while folks like me get out first chance they get. They only want the best for the area and water remains a valid concerns given the climate changes (drought) the past few years and the myriad other challenges of living in sw kansas. While they, like most people, can get a little emotional-they are not stupid nor ignorant. Give them the facts as you see or know them and let them digest it. Calling these good people close minded is not going to advance people to see things your way.
