That's the title of my presentation here at the ISARM Pilot Course at UNESCO in Paris. I used it as a case study of a dispute involving a transboundary aquifer in a single country.
Here are my abstract and PDF of my Power Point presentation:

I will post the entire paper in a few weeks after revisions have been made.
Fascinating case; I've posted on it several times. Here is my last post, from which you can access the others.
Here are some good references:
Cameron, Alan B., 2009. Mississippi v. Memphis: A Study in Transboundary Ground Water Dispute Resolution. Sea Grant Law and Policy Journal Symposium. Oxford, MS, 48p.
Cameron is a Mississippi attorney who worked for the Mississippi Attorney General's office.

This report predated the lawsuit by five years but has some excellent background material.
Although the Supreme Court declined to hear the case, I think the quote below may be the operative one.
