<br />M <br />C": <br />~ <br />N <br />(;;.; <br />~ <br /> <br /> <br />Maintenance flight <br /> <br />Board of Directors <br />Central Arizona Water Conservation District <br />Phoenix, Arizona <br /> <br />It is with a sense of pride in the work of the entire staff of the Central Arizona Water Con- <br />servation District (CA WCD) that I present this sefond annual report. <br /> <br />The aim of this report is to convey to you, to our subcontractors, to our interim water <br />customers, and to the public, the status of the CA WCD' s resources and how they are being <br />used. <br /> <br />Though CA WCD anticipated delivering about one million acre-feet (af) of water through <br />the Central Arizona Project (CAP) aqueducts in the fiscal year ending Tune 30, 1991, noi.Q!l(~ <br />:?30,000 acre-feet was taken by water users. <br /> <br />The primary reason for low water deliveries was that agricultural water users, who have <br />been the major customers for CAP water since deliveries began in 1985, were faced with severe <br />economic conditions. The cost of CAP water was, in some areas, more than twice the cost of <br />l2umping water from the ground. <br /> <br />Another factor, though of considerably less impact, was the CAP shut down from January 2 <br />through February 15, 1991, for the Qurpose of making temporary repairsJ~iphons~longJ:he <br />a_queduct. Project deliveries during the shut down were limited to the few thousand acre-feet <br />strategically stored in the aqueducts at the time. Most municipal users took advantage of the <br />shut down as an opportunity to do maintenance on their water purification plants. <br /> <br />The low volume of use does not pose immediate problems with respect to the ability of <br />CAWCD to meet its repayment obligations. However, programs aimed at more complete <br />utilization of the CAP supply are being pursued. <br /> <br />Starting June 27,1990, and continuing into the first two weeks of Tuly, water deli~re- <br />q.':lests exceeded the CAP's daily capacity of 3,000 cubic feet per second (efs) .il!lc!Rr9J:<lta <br />reductions in service were imposed. In December, after several weeks of review, a policy was <br />adopted giving subcontractors priority over users served pursuant to interim contracts. <br /> <br />('6' <br />
