for the damage question 3 if a landowner
[58]
excavates his own land and damages the
[61]
adjoining land will he be liable if the
[64]
land has been improved this hinges on
[69]
whether the improvement contributed to
[71]
the collapse if the improvement did
[73]
contribute to the class then the
[75]
excavating landowner will only be liable

question 4 what R sub J cent support
[93]
rates some jacent support rates state
[99]
that surface structures have the right
[101]
to support from underneath the land
[104]
remember that sub J cent means
[106]
underneath these are important if a
[108]
landowner allows another party to mine
[110]
tunnel or say build an underground
[112]
parking structure the other party must
[115]
ensure surface structures are adequately
[117]
supported question 5 if a third party
[124]
has underground or sub J --scent support
[127]
rights will they be liable if they
[129]
damage the surface structure if the
[135]
structures existed at the time of
[136]
conveyance then the third party will be
[139]
held strictly liable however if the
[142]
structures were built after the
[144]
conveyance the party will only be found
[146]
negligent question 6 what are riparian
[152]
rights and what are the two main
[154]
approaches
[157]
riparian rights are the rights to use
[160]
water from water courses that border
[162]
ones land this includes streams rivers
[165]
and lakes it's governed by either the
[168]
riparian doctrine or by the prior
[171]
appropriation doctrine question 7 what
[177]
is the riparian doctrine view of water
[179]
rights the riparian doctrine holds that
[185]
water belongs to those who own the land
[187]
bordering the water course this doctrine
[190]
adopts the reasonable use standard
[193]
Criterion's have the right to reasonable
[195]
use of the water and they cannot
[197]
unreasonably interfere with another
[199]
riparian rights in this doctrine natural
[202]
use trunks artificial use question 8
[208]
what is the prior appropriation doctrine
[212]
[Music]
[214]
the prior appropriation doctrine holds
[217]
that the first person to make beneficial
[219]
or productive use of the water has the
[221]
legal right to continue using it for
[223]
example using water for crops note again
[226]
that natural use Trump's artificial use
[231]
question 9 what are the rights for
[234]
groundwater surface owners can make
[239]
reasonable use of the groundwater these
[241]
are also called correlative rights
[246]
question 10 what our surface water
[249]
rights and what are the three governing
[251]
approaches to surface water surface
[257]
water rights are rights to water that is
[259]
either from rain Springs or melted snow
[262]
it is not part of a waterway the three
[265]
governing approaches are first the
[267]
common enemy doctrine which holds that
[270]
the owner can make changes to combat
[272]
flow or drainage but they will be liable
[274]
for negligence if they damage another's
[277]
land the second approach is the natural
[280]
flow theory which states that an owner
[282]
cannot make changes to combat flow and
[285]
lastly we have the reasonable use theory
[287]
which holds that an owner can make
[289]
reasonable changes to combat flow but
[291]
this balances the harm verse utility of
[294]
that change and that's the end of your
