Resumen

This chapter of the Arizona Revised Statutes provides for the County Water Augmentation Authority. The chapter provides for formation and dissolution; administration; powers and duties; financial provisions; and revenue bonds. In conjunction and cooperation with local governmental entities and the director of water resources, the authority shall within one year of the authority's formation, develop an initial water resource augmentation plan for the county in which the authority is established to guide the development of water augmentation efforts in that county; and coordinate water conservation efforts to encourage pooling the resources of all operating units in the county in which the authority is established to maximize conservation of the existing water sources in that county. The authority may negotiate to acquire in its own name, or on behalf of an operating unit located within the authority's boundaries, water and rights to water that may be legally available to augment the water supply of the county in which the authority is established; sell or exchange any water it acquires in its own name to or with any operating unit within the authority's boundaries under such terms as are necessary to ensure the use of the water in a manner consistent with the water augmentation plan developed under section 45‑1944 of this chapter; sell, lease, exchange, hold, sever, transfer or retire water rights; and negotiate and enter into agreements to use existing facilities to transport water to and within the county in which the authority is established.
