Abstract:

Increased precipitation from El Niño ensures more abundant vegetative growth, which in turn raises concern about increased fire hazards, especially during Arizona's summer fire season. Whatever fire hazards are due this year to El Niño are not being experienced evenly throughout the state, however, with some areas actually having less fires. And, in some cases, El Niño's legacy may not be apparent this season, but instead be evident by fires in future years.

Abstract:

This special supplement provides news and information about El Niño. In a sense, the publication will serve as an El Niño Times, informing Arizona water professionals and others interested in water affairs of plans, projects and activities relating to weather affected by El Niño. The publication will concentrate on events occurring in Arizona but also will provide more general information about El Niño and its expected effects.

Abstract:

Because of El Niño's seemingly late start and uncertain progress, a pattern that did not conform to some early predictions, some people in the western United States question what effect El Niño finally will have on the area; some even believe the event might be diminishing. El Niño, however, should not be lightly dismissed, as recent rains demonstrate. A January report from the U.S. Weather Service's Tucson office confirms El Niño's continued presence: 'We are currently in a strong El Niño episode, which is forecast to continue through April 1998. This episode is similar in magnitude and aeria

Abstract:

Lake Pleasant behind the recently completed New Waddell Dam held some 150,000 acre-feet of water prior to the January-February storms. In early January, the Bureau of Reclamation asked the CAWCD to hold the elevation of Lake Pleasant constant for 30 days so the stability of the New Waddell Dam could be tested. Instead, the dam received a different, real-world test, as runoff from January- February storms increased the volume of Lake Pleasant to nearly 450,000 acre-feet. Reservoir capacity is 800,000 acre-feet.

Abstract:

The Central Arizona Water Conservation District's plans to promote indirect recharge (March AWR, p.1) have induced Central Arizona Project farmers to contract for the use of up to 237,500 acre-feet (af) of Colorado River water this year in addition to their normal orders. This boosts the total amount of CAP water that may be used this year by farmers in Arizona to 412,500 af. Actual usage will depend on other economic factors of putting land into production.

In January 2014, Arizona will begin its first farmland fallowing and forbearance project. Unlike similar fallowing programs in the West, this project does not transfer the water conserved in the agricultural sector to the municipal sector. For the time being, this program seeks to conserve water in the Colorado River system. The saved water will be maintained in Lake Mead, increasing its dwindling levels and helping forestall shortages to water users in the Lower Colorado River Basin. Since 2000, water levels in Lake Mead have fallen by an alarming 100 feet. If the lake’s elevation falls by an

When the captain announced the plane’s descent, I put my book down and peered out the window as I always do. I saw sand dunes first, leading my eye to a small mountain range flanked by dirt roads and farm fields. The mountains framed successive basins, each with the same dry ground spotted with desert shrubs. After the next range, a city emerged. Densely packed buildings appeared beside finished roads. And the canals ran from the farm fields into the city, running full next to dry riverbeds. It looked a lot like Tucson. But I was in Torreon, Mexico.

Abstract:

Major increases in the cost of Central Arizona Project water may go into effect by January 1994, Central Arizona Water Conservation District board members learned at their January meeting. Continued disappointing water sales might cause the current $52/acre-foot price for municipal and industrial water to be elevated into the $65-$125 range. Other revenue-enhancing options are limited. The CAWCD's property tax levy is at its legislatively-mandated limit, and the state's new super-majority requirement makes any tax increase a hard sell

Abstract:

Owners of water rights to Cibola Valley Irrigation and Drainage District (CVIDD) in southwestern Arizona seek approval to sell or lease about 24,000 acre-feet of federal contract Colorado River water to out-of-state buyers. This proposed transaction represents a challenge to the state of Arizona and its efforts to control interstate water transfers. The Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR) thus far has blocked any proposed interstate sales or leases.
