For Star subscribers: The Bureau of Reclamation has analyzed two alternatives for curbing water use in seven states in 2024.

Tony Davis The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation has analyzed two alternatives for curbing Colorado River use that would trim seven states’ take from the river by more than double in 2024 compared to the cuts it made in river water use for this year.

By comparison, the 336-mile-long Central Arizona Project canal now sends about 1 million acre-feet a year from the Colorado River to Phoenix and Tucson to use as drinking supplies. The second proposal would allocate cuts based on the percentage of water currently used by each city, farm, tribe and other entity in the basin. That’s similar to a proposal made by the six states besides California, which would allocate cuts based on each user’s contribution toward evaporation of river water.
