DURFEE, Senior Judge.

The United States instituted this action for declaratory judgment 1 to establish its rights, under a flowage easement deed, in certain tracts of land owned by defendants, the Fisher-Otis Co., Inc., Roy Fisher, Jr., and Raymond H. Coit. Defendants appeal 2 from an adverse decision in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma declaring that the Government easement prohibits the use of landfill and the construction and/or maintenance of any structures for human habitation within the flowage easement area. We affirm.
