Spanish Constitution see article 33.1 : recognises the right to the private property. In connection with article 41 of Italian Constitution states that nobody can't be privated of its own property except in those cases when policies for the common goods and public interest have to be carried out. So, the right to private property has a doble prespective: on one hand, allows the owner to have at his disposal his property freely, but on the other hand, this right is subjected to a social function and to the community interests.
Spanish Civile Code:Spanish Civile Code See article 339: it completes de classification of common goods that the Spanish Constitution establishes. This are roads, canals, rivers, torrents, as well as property owned by State which has a public interest impact. In connection to article 41 of Italian Consitution I would like to point out that this public o common goods can be managed by private companies because in Spain it also exists a freely private economic entreprise. However, this right is limited when it comes to the common goods that Spanish Constitution in its article 132 recognises. So, would be against the law that a private company privatizate the
coastal area, beaches, territorial waters and natural resources of the economic zone and the continental shelf.
Besides article 132 of Spanish Constitution that found by Helen, art. 31, 33, 38, 128. The constitution can be found here

EU Water Framework Directive, EC Directive 2000.60.EC.pdf
This directive looks at water pollution, but it does not appear to include provisions on ownership of water or water rights. However, EU member states must adopt domestic laws relating to water to conform with the directive. The preamble refers to a notion like that of the commons;-“water is not a commercial product like any other”.

Common law and public trusteeship for environmental resources
The public trust doctrine was recognised in the US in the 1892 case Illinois Central Railroad v Illinois 146 U.S. 387 (1892). This stemmed from the English common law inherited by the United States. Therefore, further research is necessary on whether a similar doctrine (perhaps with a different name?) has been adopted by case law in the European Union countries who have a common law system….

Sovereignty Bounded. Public Trusteeship for Common Pool Resources.pdf
This article looks at the common law developments in the abovementioned area of public trusteeship. The concept of ‘public trusteeship’ might be relevant when researching case law for EU countries with common law.

Some overview of the European legal framework at page 441. The main question in the article is “whether existing legal systems can make serious contributions to the management of the earth’s water resources”. Mostly relevant for background on water and state sovereignty (Abigael)
