With great respect, admiration and affection, this Article is dedicated to Professor Henry P. Caulfield (1915- 2002). Prior to joining the faculty of the Department of Political Science at Colorado State University, Professor Caulfield was Executive Director of the Water Resources Council. He brought his interest in water law and policy to Colorado with him and instilled it in his students, including me. In order to help me deal with the financial requirements of graduate school, Professor Caulfield hired me to assist him in a training program in the application of the principles, standards, and procedures for Federal participants in the preparation of comprehensive regional or river basin plans and for the formulation and evaluation of Federal water and related land resources projects, 42 U.S.C. § 1962a-2 (2000), that had been promulgated by the Water Resources Council. At one point, he also hired me to rid his corral of Russian Thistles. More than three decades later, my respect, admiration, and affection for Professor Caulfield remain unabated, as does my hatred of the Russian Thistle.
