The area is the Hassayampa sub-basin which sits underneath much of the Buckeye city planning area about 50 miles west of Phoenix.A study conducted by the Arizona Department of Water Resources released on Monday concluded that the sub-basin is 4.4 million-acre feet short of water for future development.Kathleen Ferris of the Kyl Center for Water Policy at Arizona State University told ABC15 the report confirmed something she has long suspected and worked to convince stakeholders to act on.
"There is not enough, not nearly enough groundwater in the Hassayampa sub-basin to support the massive level of homebuilding that people want to go on there," she said. ADWR Director Tom Buschatzke who served under Ducey and will continue the role under Hobbs, said approvals of new water supply certifications for homes “will not be forthcoming” in the area until solutions are found.Join the Phoenix Business Journal as we kick off our 2023 Growth Summit series of in-person economic development events that will focus on several key areas of the Valley throughout the year.
