Abstract	This is a comparative analysis of groundwater conflict and surface water conflict in Idaho from 1950-2019. The work looks at Idaho's exceptional experience with water and demonstrates that water conflict in Idaho is different than in other PNW states. The work outlines that Idaho's water conflict is almost solely focused on quantity shortages between senior surface water rights, and junior groundwater rights. The work concludes with recommendations on options which may create resiliency and sustainable options for water managers and conflict facilitators in Idaho.
