It would be wrong. The law is clear. And if they go ahead, they should be sued.
In the Water section of the "Transition Briefing Book," a two-page,
undated document about the "Great Lakes Compact" contains this telling
sentence about obstacles facing Wisconsin communities that want Great
Lakes diversions:
"This difficulty is due to a federal law, in
existence now, which seems to some to require the approval of the other
Great Lakes states governors prior to state approval for water use
across the drainage divide."
The words "seems to some" (my emphasis) just jump off the page.
