Arizona’s groundwater levels are plummeting in many areas. The problem is especially severe in unregulated rural areas where there are no limits on pumping. The water levels in more than 2,000 wells have dropped more than 100 feet since they were first drilled. The number of newly constructed wells is accelerating, and wells are being drilled deeper and hitting water at lower levels.
Following our July 20, 2019 second public update on the Blue Ridge Water Improvement District, the Steering Committee Leadership has worked hard to answer some of the many questions and concerns raised by the attendees. Working with third parties, we have been able to gather some professional opinions and assessments using their expertise.
BRWID is on the June 29 Supervisors’ Agenda! We need your support before then. Tell the Coconino County Board of Supervisors that you support the creation of a Blue Ridge Water Improvement District.
