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.
Here’s the story: azcentral.com/story/news/loc… @azcentral

A federal judge dismissed portions of a water lawsuit by the Agua Caliente tribe, ruling against its attempt to quantify its rights to groundwater. desertsun.com/story/news/env… @EvanWyloge
This decision comes after an earlier court ruling that the tribe holds groundwater rights dating back to the creation of its reservation in the 1870s.
That ruling by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals stands. But the federal judge ruled this time that the tribe “does not have standing to pursue its quantification and quality claims.”

A terrific discussion about environmental journalism today with @cynthiabarnett @LukeRunyon @noahgshannon @AbrahmL, moderated by @gburton. Luke joked at the beginning that the panel was probably, from left to right, 'moving from most optimistic to most pessimistic.' #Journalism
Lots of insightful points in the conversation, which ranged from a discussion of optimism/pessimism in reporting on climate change to the idea of a board game designed around managing water. Going to share a few of their comments.
.@cynthiabarnett praised @jfleck: "When I’ve done reporting on water in New Mexico, I’m always amazed at the number of people who talk about John Fleck as someone who helped change the ethos of the Albuquerque community, which now uses half the water that it used in the mid-90s."

▶️Why couldn't they be more creative in counter protest? Always calling people who disagree with the Sino-centrsm as 'traitors'. 😩👇😖

💡'hàn jiān' (漢奸) original meaning in Chinese, someone who betrays 'Han' dynasty.

❓Han Dynasty had long gone.

Now, every country knows there're 'thuggish students' from this 'great country,' calling people ' hàn jiān'(Han traitors'

They could've been more creative.

Looking out my back door, Bandit snoozing in the grass. One minute ago.
He was asleep until I looked, which always wakes him up.

2. As it turns out, there's not a fence on the farm he can't jump or climb over. Without tying him up, which we're not going to do, we have no control over where he is. He is where he chooses to be.
He rambles around the place some.
3. I sleep in a recliner right inside a window, which this time of year is open every night. Periodically last night he cruised that window, just checking. Chica barked at him. He doesn't bother her, except by existing. His existence bothers her.
Things are tough all over.

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)

Story link: azcentral.com/story/news/loc…
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

(Thread) Lawmakers are taking the next step towards approving measure to support the state’s soon-to-be finalized Drought Contingency Plan today, just two days before the deadline set by the federal government requiring them to pass something.
They won’t be voting on the DCP itself, but on bills that condense months of discussions among water stakeholders into measures that create mechanisms allowing the plan to function.
At 2:00 at the Capitol, the House Natural Resources, Energy and Water Committee will meet to discuss a handful of bills:

HB 2540
HB 2541
HB 2542
HB 2543
HB 2544
HB 2545
