[QUOTE="FAL guy, post: 1637193, member: 854"] Not that it matters for the sake of this thread, but I don't think your understanding of Oklahoma water rights is accurate. I'll paraphrase Title 60, section 60 of the Oklahoma Statutes:  Diffused water, i.e. water flowing over the surface of the earth and not forming a definite stream, is owned by the owner of the land.  Groundwater (i.e., water flowing under the surface but not forming a definite stream) is owned by the owner of the land.  Stream water (i.e., water flowing in a definite stream) is public water subject to appropriation. This is a simply put explanation without getting into Riparian rights regarding Stream water. [/QUOTE]
