Nebraska's attorney General, Mike Hilgers, stands at a podium to speak about Colorado's infringement on Nebraska's water rights to the South Platte River.

Attorney General Hilgers and Governor Pillen announced Wednesday that Nebraska has sued the State of Colorado to enforce the South Platte River Compact and clear the way for construction of the Perkins County Canal.

The Perkins County Canal Project is under jurisdiction of the Nebraska Department of Natural Resources and other area Natural Resources Districts. The project came to fruition due to "seasonal South Platte River flows into Nebraska trending downwards in recent years", according to the Department of Natural Resources.

In 2022, the Perkins County Canal Project Act was passed in the state legislature.
