New federal rules for sharing the Colorado River are expected to make big cutbacks to the water supply for cities in Arizona, but as Alex Hager from Member Station KJZZ reports, the Phoenix and Tucson areas say they can keep taps flowing. Big cuts to Arizona's water supply have been in the works for years, and city utilities have been planning accordingly.
Many have spent years diversifying their water supplies to soften the impact of future Colorado River cuts. Some will lean harder on water from underground aquifers, or the nearby salt river, which is managed separately. Cities are prepared to spend billions on projects like a bigger dam to store more water
during extra wet years. Some utilities are building equipment that can safely recycle sewage back into drinking water. And a new program is in the works where cities with enough water to sell can find other cities looking to buy it. For NPR News, I'm Alex Hager in Phoenix.
