Water can be apportioned through riparian rights, which assigns rights based on ownership of land adjacent to the water source; through prior appropriation, where water rights are granted based on "first in time, first in right"; and through equitable apportionment, where water is divided amongst users based on principles of fairness and reasonableness.
A community near water is called an riparian.

Riparian habitat refers to the transitional zone between land and a river, stream, or other body of water. These habitats are characterized by high levels of moisture, diverse vegetation, and provide important ecological functions such as water filtration, erosion control, and habitat for a variety of species. Riparian areas are critical for maintaining biodiversity and supporting healthy ecosystems.
Riparian land refers to areas of land located along the banks of rivers, streams, and other bodies of water. These areas are important in maintaining water quality, providing habitat for wildlife, and supporting a diverse range of plant species. Riparian lands also play a crucial role in regulating water flow and preventing erosion.
