You've most likely heard of the massive drought across the West and wondered, "What does this mean for me, for Greater Phoenix? Will we run out of water?"
The answer is no, we're prepared.
However, Arizona is in the midst of a 21-year drought. And this past winter's El Nino weather pattern did not deliver relief.
Amid all this dire news, why is Greater Phoenix not facing water rationing or other mandatory reduction measures?
Because Central Arizona Project (CAP), Salt River Project (SRP), the Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR) and Valley municipalities have worked ceaselessly to ensure the region remains a global leader in water resource management and drought preparedness through investment in infrastructure that provides access to multiple water supplies, allows for the storage of water underground, the implementation of pioneering water laws and a long-term commitment to conservation.
