1Opinion of the Court
FLETCHER, Circuit Judge:
Boston Ranch Company, Edwin R. O’Neill, and West Haven Farming Company appeal the district court’s denial of their motion to order the Department of Interior to sell water to them at a certain price pursuant to a contract incorporated into a consent judgment. They argue that § 224(h) of the Reclamation Reform Act of 1982, 43 U.S.C. § 390ww(h), if applied to them, impairs their contract rights and interferes with the consent judgment in violation of due process and the separation of powers required by the Constitution. We affirm the district court.
