Water Advisory


Prospective homebuyers should investigate water availability before purchasing real property.  The Arizona Department of Water Resources is your first step to investigate water availability and to learn more about:

  1. Adequate water supply
  2. Inadequate water supply
  3. Property served by a water provider currently designated as having an adequate water supply
  4. No water supply determination

The State’s Active Management Areas were established to provide long-term management and conservation of their limited groundwater supplies.  In order to accomplish this the AMAs administer state laws, explore ways of augmenting water supplies to meet future needs, and routinely work to develop public policy in order to promote efficient use and an equitable allocation of available water supplies.  Click here for a map which shows which areas of the state are in an AMA.
