The Official Solution = CAP Cost for infrastructure = $30 - $100 million GV allocations = 5,400 af allocations Deficit = 40,000 af Additional augmentation = 34,600 af

Possible solutions Check dams: Upstream washes—El Coronado Ranch In larger river flows Recharge basins—Chandler Golf course recharge basins—U of A study Reservoirs in mountains Individual rain water harvesting projects

El Coronado Ranch It is important to start at the top of the watershed and put structures on the hillsides as well as in the streambed. We have built over 20,000 loose rock structures in the Chiricahua Mountains.
