Water rights can be separated from land ownership, just like oil or mineral rights. If you purchase the water rights along with the land, then the water belongs to you... It's only illegal to collect the water when it's not yours and you have no right to it. That arrangement is typically found in the drier areas where rainfall is limited, but people want to live there anyway.
