A century of water for Buckeye

A century of water: Study confirms Buckeye has enough groundwater to sustain growth, from the West Valley View, reports that a recent 1,665-square-mile Lower Hassayampa Sub-Basin Hydrology Study concludes that Buckeye has a sufficient groundwater supply to meet the town's development needs for the next century. "It means that we now have assurance that if we properly manage our groundwater supply, we can provide water for the growth of Buckeye," said Scott Lowe, Buckeye Public Works Director. The water study was funded by the town and developers/landowners in the study area, including Belmont, Festival Ranch, Douglas Ranch, Elianto, Tartesso and Trillium. Approximately 30 percent of the water accounted for in the study will come from recharge, or treated water that is released back into the ground. This study will support the development of the area of Buckeye north of Interstate 10 and should make this area a continuing hot spot for real estate development in the Valley.
