              I have a well and pump potable groundwater for drinking and household use. I also own this land's mineral rights but riparian rights ?

              [A]s with surface water and riparian rights, three theories of underground water rights have evolved. The first theory, known as the absolute ownership theory, derives from ENGLISH LAW and affords landowners the right to withdraw as much underground water as they wish, for whatever purpose, requiring their neighbors to fend for themselves. Under the second theory, known as the American rule, landowners may withdraw as much underground water as they like as long as it is not done for a malicious purpose or in a wasteful manner. This theory is now applied in a majority of jurisdictions in the United States.

              California has developed a third theory of underground water rights, known as the correlative theory. The correlative theory provides each landowner with an equal right to use underground water for a beneficial purpose. But landowners are not given the prerogative to seriously deplete a neighbor's water supply. In the event of water shortage, courts may apportion an underground supply among landowners. Many states facing acute or chronic shortages have adopted the correlative theory of under-ground water rights. ...

              I pay taxes on the land and own this land's mineral rights ... I bought the water?

                    Arizona gets pretty much all of it's water from the Colorado River. Arizona has almost NO water for itself, it gets it all from the river flowing in from the north.

                    So, the states to the north in which the Colorado River flows through - have laws about collecting rain water. Because that rain water needs to make it's way to the river. If you had too many people collecting the water instead Arizona and the people living there would have serious serious issues.

                    Just go research it yourself, it's not that hard. I'll never understand why so many people go watch a youtube video and suddenly have some moronic idea about what is happening in the world. How do you get through life believing every little thing that is told to you?
                    I get that this is a common sense law in some places, but I wonder if they also control the corporations the same way as they do the public? For example, they say that water can't be destroyed, only converted to a different form, and so minus the water we've sent into space, we have the same amount of water on earth as when the dinosaurs lived.

                    I've often wondered what kind of effect putting so much water into bottles, cans, and tanks has on the worldwide water supply and levels? Think how many cans of soup there are right now, sitting on shelves. How many cases of coke, beer, wine, juice... It must be astronomical.

                        Didn't you know? The water rights are being bought up by Coca Cola and Nestle. Collecting rain water is theft!

                          Coca Cola made 1 billion white cans this year to raise money for polar bears. Within two or three weeks of releasing they were back to the regular cans. I can't imagine the number of cans of coke sold in a year.

                            They went back to the regular cans because sales tanked. People thought it was diet coke, didn't realize it was a special can. I had to do a double take at the pizza shop when I got one because I thought it was diet.

                            They came out with a new red, polar bear can.

                              no, we have more. Comets and meteorites (small ones as well as large ones) hit the earth all the time, and many contain water. it doesn't sound like a lot, but over millions of years and the amount of objects the hit the earth every day ads up to a lot of water
