Since that time, Metropolitan's representatives <br /> <br />have appeared annually before congressiDnal cDmmittees, <br /> <br />recommending that Congress appropriate funds for the Central <br /> <br />23. <br /> <br /> <br />Arizona Project. <br /> <br />The water supply available to the Central Arizona <br /> <br />Project is projected to diminish from 1,600,000 acre feet/year <br /> <br />tD less than 500,000 acre-feet per year sometime in the next <br /> <br />century.
