For subscribers: Bill, which still needs full Senate OK, would require that 75% of the funding to be spent to acquire water from outside of the state.
Howard Fischer PHOENIX — State lawmakers took the first steps Thursday to providing what they say is a secure and reliable source of water for Arizona.
"Obviously, we've been using the same thing that's been on the planet for a long time,'' Otondo said."So reuse is not disgusting to me.'' So think possible $1,200 annual water bills per house for treated seawater. And that could be what makes treatment of effluent to drinking water quality — more colorfully referred to as"toilet-to-tap'' — a viable option.
"If we don't know how much is there, if we don't have the data, then how do we know how to protect it, how do we know how to protect our small farmers?'' asked Steele. She said the nation and the world is reliant on family farms. Agriculture uses about 70% of the state's water supply. And the organization's Chelsea McCGuire said any plans to increase the water supply"takes that target off the back of agricultural water users.''"I think there's going to come a point, maybe very soon, do we want green grass in our yards or do we want green vegetables on our plates?'' she said.
