Best Answer

The present owner of the land to which the water rights were granted must release those rights to the present owner of the land that is encumbered by the rights. For example, if Sheila was granted water rights in Judith's land and Sheila no longer needs the use of the water then Sheila must execute a release of all her right, title and interest in the water rights. That could be done in the form of a quitclaim deed from Sheila to Judith. The deed of release should refer to the original document that created the water rights, should state that those rights are being released and should be recorded in the land records.

No. A deed cannot be amended. A new document must be executed by the owner of the water source. That new document must grant the water rights to a named grantee, must be signed by the owner(s) of the water source and it must be recorded in the land records. You should consult with an attorney who specializes in real estate law.
