Legal Alert – The Phoenix AMA Groundwater Model: What it Means and What’s Next
Authored by Kyle Stenseth, with contributions from Michael Pearce, Grady Gammage, Jr, and Stephen Anderson.
What Happened:
On June 1, 2023, the Arizona Department of Water Resources (“ADWR”) released a new groundwater model for the Phoenix Active Management Area (“AMA”) through ADWR’s Assured Water Supply (“AWS”) program. The model covers the Hassayampa and East and West Salt River Valley sub-basins of the AMA, which captures most of the Phoenix Metropolitan Area. The model projects that at the end of a 100-year projection period—in the year 2123—four percent (4%) of the total simulated groundwater demand in the sub-basins will be unmet.
