Description
This appeal was taken from a declaratory judgment entered by the District Court in and for Water Division No. 1 (water court) which purported to resolve a conflict in the relationship between Colorado appropriation law and federal reserved water rights. Pursuant to a minute order issued June 19, 1980, our decision in this case was held in abeyance until the resolution of the appeals from the Water Court for Water Divisions 4, 5, and 6. Our decision in United States v. Denver, P.2d (Colo. 1982) (S. Ct. Nos. 79SA99 and 79SA100, announced November 29, 1982) (Denver I), determines a number of the issues relating to the federal governments reserved rights to Colorado water and is dispositive of the issues in this case. Denver I is being announced contemporaneously with this decision and, for the reasons stated in that opinion, we reverse the trial courts declaratory judgment and remand the case for further proceedings consistent with Denver I.
