ABOUT SAWUA

The Southern Arizona Water Users Association (SAWUA) is a voluntary nonprofit association organized in 1999 to discuss, analyze, and recommend ways to preserve and enhance the quality and quantity of Southern Arizona’s water resources.

The Association is comprised of governmental bodies, municipal water providers, agricultural water users, and others interested in working cooperatively to achieve the objective of the Association.

The Association believes it should exercise leadership and initiative to determine and encourage the most effective management of the region’s sustainable supplies of quality water.

The Association is not, nor is it intended to be, a substitute for local government. It is, however, an organization through which its individual members can work on water resource issues and coordinate their efforts.
