In this special episode, we flip the script. Tracy Harden, Principal of Harden Communications LLC and climate and environmental steward, steps in as the interviewer to turn the tables on our host and water attorney, Emily. Sparked by the ongoing debate over data center development in Utah, Tracy voices the questions on everyone's mind: How do water rights work? How do you get one? What happens when there's a dispute, and who has the power to resolve it? Emily breaks it all down, from the basics of water law to the authority of the State Engineer.

Whether you're a concerned citizen, a curious newcomer, or deep in the water world, this one's for you.
