💧 Arizona’s water future is being shaped right now. What comes next?

At our latest AZ in Focus, the Greater Phoenix Chamber brought together leading water experts to explore how Arizona will navigate a future with less Colorado River water, including what new federal guidelines could mean for our state’s businesses, communities and economy. From Arizona’s preparations to the negotiations and investments ahead, our panel shared valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities that will shape our state’s long-term water security.

Thank you to our panelists for sharing their expertise:

• Clint Chandler, Deputy Director, Arizona Department of Water Resources
• Leslie Meyers, Associate General Manager & Chief Water Resources and Services Executive, Salt River Project (SRP)
• Warren Tenney, Executive Director, Arizona Municipal Water Users Association (AMWUA)

A special thank you to Fennemore for generously hosting our AZ in Focus discussion and providing a space for these important conversations about Arizona’s water future!
