Abstract
ABSTRACT: Western state water resources are drawing increasing attention because of prolonged drought, pound‐water overdraft and an ever‐increasing awareness of insufficient Colorado River water to supply a growing population and meet industrial demand. Arizona is no exception, and the alarming decline in ground‐water levels has prompted the Arizona State Legislature to adopt legislation establishing the Ground‐Water Management Study Commission to recommend legislative action by 1979.This paper summarizes Arizona's ground water legislative history and discusses possible alternatives for change. The authors address specific issues facing the State and offer a set of possible Commission recommendations.
