Under the Moyer plan, two of the thorniest issues – the funding of water lines in northern Henderson County and the fate of a Bent Creek property transferred to Henderson County under the 1995 agreement – would be resolved through a land-for-cash swap.
Under the 1995 Water Agreement, the Authority is supposed to authorize building new lines in Henderson County only when the revenue from those lines is projected to equal the construction costs within nine years.
In their view, the Asheville-Buncombe Water Authority came to Henderson County in 1995 desperate for a new water source, and the county, being a good neighbor, gave permission for the city to buy land in the county and build the Mills River treatment plant.

 CA: Governor Davis Signs Unprecedented Water Legislation that Implements Historic Accord--30-September-03
The bills also mark the end of decades of regional water conflicts along the Colorado River, stabilize California's overall water supply, and set the stage for an unprecedented effort to save the Salton Sea, an important refuge for wildlife and waterfowl, including several endangered species.
As California's dependence on water from the Colorado River is gradually reduced, the other Colorado basin states will be able to claim their legally entitled amounts of Colorado River water over the course of the 75-year deal.
Among other provisions in the legislation Governor Davis signed today are important protections and support for the restoration of the Salton Sea, the State's largest lake and an important habitat for over 400 species of birds, including home to several endangered species.

Water has been dominating the news lately, with two major hurricanes striking in the Gulf Coast region of the U.S. this year, and more recently with devastating results in Mexico and Central America.
Water relates to the unconscious, the emotions and the inner experience of well-being and security -- or the lack thereof.
To me, the water worlds are associated with the dawn of what it seems fair to call the Earth Changes era of history, and the human experience of going through this sense of change and displacement.

 SPACE.com -- New Images Reveal Martian Ice Age, Signs of Water
While Mars is known to contain significant volumes of water ice at its poles, researchers have yet to prove their suspicion that water ice lurks under the rest of the planet's dusty surface.
First, he explains, a layer of dust and water ice accumulated on much of the surface, mixing to form a sort of icy cement that was 3 to 33 feet (1 to 10 meters) thick.
If melted, the researchers figure there would be enough water to cover all of Mars in a layer of water 4 to 12 inches (10-30 centimeters) deep.

Scientists are unable to determine when the water may have been present, but the evidence suggests it was during the long-ago formation of the rocks.

 Scientists still seeking signs of water from Lunar Prospector crash
The only way to detect water or OH was by means of sensitive spectrometers tuned to the ultraviolet and infrared spectral lines expected from those molecules.
The failure to reacquire a signal from the vehicle at the time it would have emerged from the dark side of the moon is proof that impact occurred, and all indications are that it crashed as planned.
Whether or not water is eventually found on the moon, scientists agree that the July 31st impact was a fittingly creative finish to a low-cost Discovery Program mission that exceeded all expectations after more than 6,800 lunar orbits in 18 months.

NASA announced in March that Spirit's twin rover, Opportunity, had determined that rocks at a site on the other side of the planet were once soaked with liquid water and conditions would have been suitable for life.
Evidence at that location included a large amount of crystalized salt inside rock, indicating it was dissolved in water and then left behind when the water evaporated.
The findings were announced as Opportunity was being readied to enter a deep crater that could offer clues to the planet's history of water, despite the risk that the craft may not be able to get out.

 Spirit finds more signs of water on Mars
The US rover Spirit has found more signs that water once existed on Mars, days after its twin probe discovered signs that parts of the Red Planet were once drenched with water and could possibly have supported life, NASA said.
The latest findings point to smaller amounts of water, after Spirit scraped a tiny hole in a volcanic rock and found shiny material resembling minerals that crystallize after water evaporates.
The water, with minerals dissolved in it, may have flowed with the lava that created the rock, or may have somehow entered the rock later.
