Which of the following best describes riparian rights?

  1. The right to use public parks adjoining one's property

  2. The ownership by a landowner of the land up to the high-water mark of a navigable river adjacent to his property

  3. The right to access a public road from one's land

  4. The right to exclusive use of groundwater beneath one's land

The correct answer is: The ownership by a landowner of the land up to the high-water mark of a navigable river adjacent to his property

Riparian rights refer to the rights granted to a landowner of the land up to the high-water mark of a navigable river adjacent to their property. This means the landowner has control over the use and enjoyment of the water and land up to the high-water mark. Option A is incorrect because it refers to public parks, which are owned by the government and not the landowner. Option C is incorrect because it refers to access to a public road, which is a separate right and not related to riparian rights. Option D is incorrect because it refers to groundwater, which is not directly connected to the land adjacent to a river.
