Getting to the Finish Line – what’s next for Colorado River Drought Contingency Planning?
Arizona has worked over the course of several years with the other states in the Colorado River Basin and the United States to develop an interstate Drought Contingency Plan (DCP) to protect Colorado River supplies.
Within Arizona, stakeholders have been working to develop an Implementation Plan, a series of agreements that will govern the way certain terms of the DCP will be implemented within Arizona once the DCP is effective.
The Implementation Plan is nearly in place. However, we’re not yet able to say it’s “done.”
