The study was structured in the light of four dimensions concerning the conditions for the access and subsistence of water rights for irrigation granted by permits and concessions; 1) ownership of the property to be irrigated; 2) the term; 3) rights forfeiture for the lack of use; and 4) the water right attachment to the property.

Establishing reasonable terms to water rights is valued as very positive or positive, while excessive terms –long or short- are considered negative very negative. Short term forfeiture for lack of use entails a strong promotion of production, something that prevent from keeping idle flows of water and speculation. Appurtenance is considered a positive element, but it is more positive when developed together with mechanisms that allow flexibility so as to allow authorities to assess due rights reallocation.
