Reflections on the Boldt Decision with Earl McGimpsey
Growing up, I always sensed that my father was deeply involved in a significant legal case, although my understanding of it was limited as I was less than 5 years old at the time. It wasn’t until much later in life, when I attended an American Bar Association Water Law Conference, that I truly grasped the importance of the Boldt Decision. Now, as this pivotal ruling marks its 50th anniversary, I felt compelled to capture my father’s thoughts on the case. Resources and links mentioned in or relevant to this session include: Thank You!

Customer Reviews
Water Industry Go-To
This is a great resource for all things that impact the water industry and my go-to for thought leadership and new ways of looking at the industry as a whole.
Great Content
Really enjoying different aspects of the water business.
Awesome Learning Resource!
Awesome content. I really appreciate the broad range of guests you interview. I am learning so much, and your podcast is exactly what I wanted to find when searching for a podcast to learn about water conservation. I am attempting to develop desperately needed affordable housing for the service workers / working class in our highly water sensitive mountain community. To my astonishment, the rules around water use are arcane, allowing wholesale waste, while at the same time restricting thoughtful development. I am trying to break that norm by presenting a highly water efficient (grey water re-use, rain water catchment, metering, common meal prep etc.)
I would love to hear more content about how developers employ cost effective conservation techniques into their buildings thereby helping to overcome water scarcity and creating housing suitable for our 21st century water situation.
Technical suggestion - turn up the volume on the guest mic. They are hard to hear sometimes at full volume and your mic is much louder.
Thanks for everything you’re doing to help us learn what we should be doing!
