Arizona cities are joining together under one banner to advocate for Arizona in ongoing Colorado River talks. Existing agreements determining Arizona’s allotted share of Colorado River water are set to expire next year. … CAP [Central Arizona Project] is the system that delivers Colorado River water throughout the state and is in partnership with the municipalities under the new coalition, branded Coalition for Protecting Arizona’s Lifeline. The goal of the new Arizona coalition is to unite Colorado River water users and showcase the state’s ongoing water conservation efforts.
