科罗拉多州反对内布拉斯加的运河计划, Colorado opposes Nebraska’s canal plan, citing threats to water rights and the Platte River Basin.

科罗拉多正式反对内布拉斯加州向美国最高法院提出的Perkins县拟议运河案, 认为该项目可能损害普拉特河流域的水权及环境资源。 Colorado has formally opposed Nebraska’s case before the U.S. Supreme Court regarding a proposed canal in Perkins County, arguing the project could harm water rights and environmental resources in the Platte River Basin. 该州辩称,运河会转移过多的水量,可能违反州际契约和联邦法律。 The state contends that the canal would divert excessive amounts of water, potentially violating interstate compacts and federal laws. 争议的核心是两国之间在水分配问题上的长期法律斗争,科罗拉多州强调其有义务保护下游水用户和生态系统。 The dispute centers on the long-standing legal battle over water allocation between the two states, with Colorado emphasizing its obligation to protect downstream water users and ecosystems. 预计最高法院将在下届任期内复审此案。 The Supreme Court is expected to review the case in the coming term.
