During the March 12-13, 2019 Arizona Corporation Commission Open Meeting, a request to adjust the CAGRD fees charged to Johnson Utilities L.L.C. customers was on the consent agenda.
The CAGRD was established by the Arizona legislature to serve as a groundwater replenishment entity for its members, and it provides a mechanism for designated water supply providers such as Johnson Utilities to demonstrate a 100-year water supply. Members pay the CAGRD to replenish groundwater pumped by the member that exceeds the specified pumping limits. The CAGRD is recognized as an important tool in Arizona’s groundwater conservation efforts.
