ADWR Third Management Plan 2000-2010

The Plan for the Third Management Period, adopted in December 13, 1999, is the third in a series of five management plans designed to achieve Active Management Area (AMA) management goals. The Groundwater Management code of 1980 requires the Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR) to issue management plans at the beginning of each decade until 2020.

The Third Management Plan adopts water management programs for the Prescott, Phoenix, Pinal, Tucson and Santa Cruz Active Management Areas over the next 10 years. Each plan contains three sections. The first section provides an overview of water resource conditions and water use characteristics in each AMA.
