Water Supply Gap Threatens Arizona Farmlands
Victor I. Corbell, Salt River Valley Water Users' Assoc. member, told a Senate subcommittee that central Arizona reclamation is needed to avert loss of much land from production. He says current Salt River supplies are short by about one third and underground levels fall. Colorado River diversions could add 242 000 acre feet yearly, though 400 000 acre feet would be required and much would be lost to evaporation. See hearing on page 4.
