WATER SETTLEMENT
What was once a fertile field lies parched and dormant alongside a dry irrigation canal Monday, Sept. 23, 2002, near Casa Blanca, Ariz., on the Gila River Indian Reservation. An agreement that would slice through decades of litigation that has tied water rights in knots was introduced by Sen. Jon Kyl, R-Ariz., on Tuesday. The bill would spell out exactly how much of Arizona's precious water should flow to the Gila River Reservation in what many expect would increase the water allotment for farming expansion.(AP Photo/Matt York)
