The ocean is of the importance of groundwater as a vital water resource that knows no boundaries, from the international community at the present time with the issues associated with this type of those resources for the ownership of vitality due to its escalating importance and what it warns of possible conflicts in the future for those countries participating in transboundary groundwater reservoirs.

And that is by pushing through its implementation in this regard from the Helsinki rules in 1966 to the aquifer bill of 2008, which is the result of the interest of the international community in transboundary groundwater systems.

The United States of America is unable to enter the United States of America and Mexico, which is located on the border area between them, taking into account the basic principles. For this reason, this point of view is a natural aspect, and the settlement of objective methods of prevention, by considering the subject of the entrance to the principles of fair and equitable use and the principle of not causing harm to the significant, but defining a standard for measuring the severity of the harm and focusing primarily on international cooperation.
