How good are Arizona’s legal rights to the Colorado River “if Lake Mead is at dead pool!!!!” asks Patricia Mulroy, the former water boss for the Las Vegas area who has wielded enormous influence over the years over management of the Colorado River and over Las Vegas’ growth, water use and conservation.
