Project Within a Project in Arizona Drainage Effort
The El Paso Herald describes a second drainage project in the Salt River valley Arizona. Unlike the first approach in the Grand wall area the plan uses wells and pumping plants to drain about 200 000 acres. Wells of about ten feet depth will feed to pumps and power plants will supply energy. An assessment of 2 70 per acre funds the installation. The system aims to be in use by next June and expects to empower land with water and generate positive asset value for Water users.
