Résumé

This chapter of the Arizona Revised Statutes provides for the Arizona Water Protection Fund. The primary purpose of this chapter is to establish the Arizona water protection fund commission and the Arizona water protection fund that shall provide an annual source of monies for the development and implementation of measures to protect water of sufficient quality and quantity to maintain, enhance and restore rivers and streams and associated riparian habitats, including fish and wildlife resources that are dependent on these important habitats consistent with existing water law and water rights, and measures to increase water availability.  The commission may also provide funding to develop and protect riparian habitats in conjunction with a man-made water resource project, if the man‑made water resource water project directly or indirectly benefits a river or stream and includes or creates a riparian habitat.  This funding shall occur primarily through the grant of monies from the Arizona water protection fund by the commission to entities that cooperate and work in conjunction with local residents and affected jurisdictions.
