Double RL Company v. Telluray Ranch Properties and Wayne Schieldt
Issued September 23, 2002
Double RL Ranch failed to file a timely application for a finding of reasonably diligence on a conditional water right held by it. The Water Court, Division 4, canceled the water right, but failed to provide notice of the cancellation as required by C.R.S. 37-92-305(7). Double RL Ranch sought reconsideration of the cancellation, which was denied by the Water Court. The Supreme Court reversed, holding that statutory notice must be provided before the Water Court may cancel a conditional water right.
