Under the proposed project, groundwater would be recharged with water supplied by the Central Arizona Project (CAP). The project would affect two ephemeral washes that cross the CAP Reach 6 Pipeline in the southeastern portion of the San Xavier District. The purpose of the project is to improve reliability of the water supply for the San Xavier Cooperative Farm.
During the initial scoping phase, the public is invited to submit comments to assist in the identification of key issues and alternatives related to the proposal that should be addressed in the Environmental Assessment. An EA will be prepared by Reclamation, BIA and the Navajo Nation to evaluate potential issues, consider alternatives, and analyze effects of the proposed action and other action alternatives.
