The Santa Rosa connects with <br />the Salt-Gila Aqueduct. <br /> <br />Initially taking water from the Santa Rosa were the two largest non-Indian <br />irrigation and drainage districts, Maricopa-Stanfield and Central Arizona, and <br />the Ak Chin Indian community. <br /> <br />~ <br />l <br />8\ "'j <br />l~/l ~ ~ <br />~/r.'J' if <br />~~N <br /> <br /> <br />June 27, 1990 <br /> <br />The CAP operated at capacity for the first time, delivering 6,000 acre-feet of <br />water in 24 hours. <br /> <br />More than 85 percent of the water was diverted to farms in Maricopa and <br />Pinal counties, including the Ak Chin Indian Reservation. Cities and water <br />companies in Maricopa County took the remainder of the water. <br /> <br />The CAP was designed to carry a maximum of 3,000 cubic feet of water per <br />second. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
