This is a common debate and often ends up in war if the solution cannot be found politically, as water is considered a natural resource for all of humanity with no owner.
This is also a major problem with rivers, as to the source country and the countries the river flows through to the sea.
The river Euphrates is used by Turkey, Syria and Iraq etc it is a continuous problem as each economy is dependant on the water.
The Turkish recently built a dam and in Iraq the river went so low the water was not sufficient to cool the power stations.

It is a legal / power issue. Water rights can, and are, controlled by combinations of federal, state and local governments, private agencies, and conservation associations. In the western United States there have been actual ‘water wars’ over such rights. The was, literally a 100 of conflict in the Owens Valley of California between local officials and residents there, and the city of Los Angeles which used every means (largely illegal) to gain control of the water that flows into the valley from the Sierra Nevada mountains. If you are at interested in the topic generally, “Water and Power: The Conflict over Los Angeles Water Supply in the Owens Valley” by William L. Kahrl will open your eyes to how serious a subject this can be.

Here in Tucson we are the bottom of the food chain regarding Colorado River water. I admit that Phoenix is a greedy baitch, but you need to be more worried about Las Vegas. They have the money and the power - and they desperately want/need your water.

since the dam is in the other state and then that state owns it. However if the other state bought the dam then they are incharge of it.

the dam is owned by the state that constructs it but the body of water should be public domain.

Ask Colorado, Arizona gets our water, Kansas gets our water, New Mexico gets our water, and we have water sanctions on the residents because the well is almost dry.
