August 2019 - @CAPArizona – Colorado River Drought Contingency Plan - Fact Sheet page 1 – “DCP will begin in *2020* & Risk of Lake Mead going below 1025’ *8% with #DCP*” @azwater @AZWaterFacts @AMWUA #azwater #AZleg
“A Colorado River water shortage does not mean that Arizona is in a water crisis.
Arizona residents can now be assured that future water supplies are more reliable and secure. The economies supporting the state can continue to thrive based on this secure water supply.”@CAPArizona

Tom Buschatzke of @azwater is giving a presentation on groundwater in Pinal County: "Looking out 100 years, there is insufficient groundwater in the Pinal Active Management Area to support all existing uses" #AZwater
@azwater My former colleague @dustingardiner wrote about the issue earlier this year. At the time, he reported that the latest data "raises red flags about growth and the water supply in one of the fastest growing parts of the state." azcentral.com/story/news/loc… @azcentral
@azwater @dustingardiner @azcentral Here's the full statement: "Looking out 100 years, there is insufficient groundwater in the Pinal Active Management Area to support all existing uses and issued assured water supply determinations." He's referring partly to reviews that have been issued for new subdivisions.

In a hearing yesterday, Arizona Department of Water Resources Director Tom Buschatzke said this paragraph of our story about Pinal County water was inaccurate and that we refused to correct the story. (Thread 1/7)

He’s right -- we didn’t correct it. Because it was true.

▶️The story accurately quoted DWR. Here’s the email where the info came from: (screenshot shows DWR spokesman Doug MacEachern’s response to my question in bold). 2/7
▶️DWR has never said its initial statement was wrong. They've simply reiterated that no projects with a Certificate of Assured Water Supply (final water permit) are in jeopardy. 3/7
