Some of the major river basins in Nigeria include the Niger Basin Authority (mandate: cooperation, sustainable management of water resources), the Benue Basin Development Authority (mandate: development of water resources for agriculture, fisheries, and urban water supply), and the Ogun-Oshun River Basin Development Authority (mandate: water resources development for agriculture, domestic, and industrial use).
The Colorado River Authority is divided into two main basins: the Upper Basin and the Lower Basin. The seven states that participate in the management and allocation of the Colorado River are Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, and New Mexico in the Upper Basin, and Arizona, Nevada, and California in the Lower Basin. These states collaborate to share the river's water resources according to the Colorado River Compact and other agreements.
