Plans & Reports
Each year, the AWBA prepares an Annual Plan of Operation and an Annual Report. The Annual Plan of Operation is prepared in the last quarter of each year and adopted by the Commission at its December Regular Quarterly Meeting. The Annual Report is prepared for the previous year, adopted by the Commission at its June Regular Quarterly Meeting and submitted to the Governor's Office and the Offices of the President of the Senate the Speaker of the House no later than July 1 of each year.
The Annual Report details the AWBA's activities for the previous calendar year.
In 2019, there was no excess CAP water available to the AWBA for storage. Still, the AWBA continued to make progress on its firming goals through other means. The AWBA purchased 19,257 acre-feet of LTSCs: 13,100 acre-feet in the Phoenix AMA and 6,157 acre-feet in the Tucson AMA. Cumulatively, the AWBA has accrued or acquired 4.28 million acre-feet (MAF) of LTSCs.
The Plan of Operation describes the AWBA's planned activities for the upcoming year. The Amended Plan of Operation describes amendments to the original Plan.
In 2020, there is no excess CAP water available for AWBA storage. The AWBA will continue to explore alternative methods, including purchases of long-term storage credits or firming credits, to make progress on its Indian and M&I firming goals. The 2020 Annual Plan of Operation provides for the development of an estimated 35,600 acre-feet of credits.
