SRP provides water to about 2.5 million Valley residents, delivering 260 billion gallons of water (800,000 acre-feet) each year, and manages a 13,000-square-mile watershed that includes an extensive system of reservoirs, wells, irrigation laterals, and 131 miles of canals.</span></p>]]></pp:boilerplate><description><![CDATA[<p><span>SRP and the Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) will lower the water level of Canyon Lake for approximately 16 weeks starting Sept. 16 for critical dam safety inspections and maintenance. Tonto National Forest will close the lake on Sept. 8, including all boat ramps and access points, to prepare for the drawdown. The lake will remain closed for the duration of the project to ensure public safety.</span></p><p><span>SRP and Reclamation perform these inspections and maintenance projects every 20 years to ensure dam safety and water reliability for 2.5 million Valley residents. Throughout the project no water will be wasted. Water drawn from Canyon Lake will be used to satisfy normal deliveries to SRP water customers. In addition, water will continue to be stored in other reservoirs with no interruption in water delivery.</span></p><p><span>While maintenance is regularly performed on the dams, some critical equipment is located underwater, which makes it inaccessible without lowering the lake level. The work will focus on the normally submerged portions of Mormon Flat and Horse Mesa dams, as well as the river channel downstream of Horse Mesa Dam.</span></p><p><span>The drawdown project has several important benefits, including:</span></p><ul><li><span>Supporting operational safety of the dams for water storage and flood control. </span></li><li><span>Ensuring water reliability for more than 2.5 million Valley residents.</span></li><li><span>Providing an opportunity for SRP and other agencies and businesses to perform any necessary maintenance work and repairs to their Canyon Lake facilities. </span></li></ul><p><span>It will take approximately four weeks to lower the water level by 54 feet; approximately eight weeks to complete the inspection and maintenance work; and approximately four weeks to fill the lake back to the normal level using water from upstream reservoirs.</span></p><p><span>Canyon Lake has over 57,000 acre-feet of water storage capacity – enough to provide water for about 173,000 Arizona families for a year. SRP began building dams, creating reservoirs and managing the surface water infrastructure more than 120 years ago. SRP is committed to maintaining adequate water supplies for long-term future use.</span></p><p><span>To learn more about the project, visit the </span><a href="http://srp.net/canyonlakedrawdown"><span>Canyon Lake Drawdown</span></a><span> webpage.</span></p>]]></description><category><![CDATA[news]]></category>

SRP provides water to about 2.5 million Valley residents, delivering 260 billion gallons of water (800,000 acre-feet) each year, and manages a 13,000-square-mile watershed that includes an extensive system of reservoirs, wells, irrigation laterals, and 131 miles of canals.</span></p>]]></pp:boilerplate><description><![CDATA[<p><span>As communities across the Southwest face ongoing drought conditions and increasing water supply challenges, SRP today celebrated the completion of the Gilbert Road Pipeline project — a major infrastructure investment designed to enhance water reliability and operational flexibility throughout the Valley.</span></p><p><span>The new system will enable SRP to move water from south of the Salt River to the Arizona Canal, strengthening its ability to deliver water where it is needed most and helping ensure a resilient water supply.</span></p><p><span>“The Gilbert Road Pipeline project builds upon SRP’s legacy of innovative water management and engineering excellence,” said SRP President Chris Dobson. “More than a decade in the making and completed after five years of construction, this transformative project reflects the long-term vision, strategic investment and collaboration required to meet central Arizona's future water needs.”</span></p><p><span>The project involved the unique engineering challenge of installing 3.5 miles of 36-inch pipeline to transport approximately 20,000 gallons of water a minute uphill from SRP wells and an underground storage facility to the Arizona Canal. The pipeline crosses the Salt River channel and is suspended beneath Maricopa County Department of Transportation’s newly constructed Gilbert Road Bridge.</span></p><p><span>“Like the Gilbert Road Bridge, which opened to traffic in early 2025, the Gilbert Road Pipeline Project is a shining example of local agencies working together. MCDOT is proud to have been a partner in the successful completion of this critical infrastructure to benefit the residents of Maricopa County and the Salt River Pima Maricopa Indian Community,” said Jesse Gutierrez, MCDOT Director and County Engineer.</span></p><p><span>Another section of the pipeline was installed using trenchless bore technology beneath the Beeline Highway before the system reaches its final delivery point. Five new high-capacity water production wells will be installed near the Granite Reef Underground Storage Project (GRUSP), one of the largest water-banking facilities in Arizona.</span> <span>SRP operates GRUSP in partnership with the cities of Scottsdale, Mesa, Phoenix, Gilbert, Chandler, and Tempe. GRUSP allows water to be stored underground and recovered when it is needed most, providing an important drought-resiliency benefit.</span></p><p><span>Together, the wells and pipeline will provide SRP with additional flexibility to manage water supplies and respond to changing water demands across the region.</span></p><p><span>“Water has always been essential to the O’odham and Piipaash people and thoughtful stewardship remains one of our greatest responsibilities. Projects like the Gilbert Road Pipeline demonstrate what is possible when strong partnerships are built on mutual respect and a shared commitment to planning for future generations. We are proud to work alongside SRP and our regional partners to help strengthen long-term water reliability for our Community and the Valley,” said Martin Harvier, President of the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community.</span></p><p><span>The project was made possible through strong partnerships with the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community and the Maricopa County Department of Transportation. Their collaboration, leadership and shared commitment to regional water resilience played a vital role in bringing this complex infrastructure project to completion.</span></p>]]></description><category><![CDATA[news]]></category>

SRP suministra agua a cerca de 2.5 millones de residentes del Valle, con más de 260,000 millones de galones de agua (800,000 acres-pies) al año, y gestiona una cuenca de 13,000 millas cuadradas que incluye un amplio sistema de embalses, pozos, canales y conductos de riego.</p>]]></pp:boilerplate><description><![CDATA[<p><span>Los empleados de SRP recolectaron más de 19,650 latas de alimentos y recaudaron más de $42,000 durante la colecta anual de alimentos de este año, convirtiéndola en la campaña más exitosa en la historia del programa y brindando apoyo fundamental a St. Mary’s Food Bank y United Food Bank.</span></p><p><span>Las donaciones ayudarán a ambas organizaciones a responder a la creciente demanda de asistencia alimentaria y a proporcionar 187,235 comidas a niños, adultos mayores y familias que enfrentan inseguridad alimentaria en Arizona. </span></p><p><span>“La inseguridad alimentaria puede afectar a cualquier persona y, en SRP, reconocemos el papel fundamental que desempeñan los bancos de alimentos en el bienestar de nuestras comunidades”, dijo Anita Tarango, gerente de Estrategia de Vinculación Comunitaria de SRP. “Nos sentimos profundamente orgullosos de la generosidad de los empleados de SRP y de su compromiso </span>de<span> apoyar a quienes más lo necesitan, tanto a través de sus donativos como de su labor voluntaria”.</span></p><p><span>Los bancos de alimentos en todo Arizona continúan reportando una creciente demanda de apoyo. El aumento </span>del<span> costo de vida, junto con los cambios en los programas gubernamentales de asistencia alimentaria, ha incrementado la necesidad de ayuda en todo el estado. En el área metropolitana de Phoenix, los bancos de alimentos han reportado aumentos de aproximadamente 15 % en la demanda durante el último año, mientras que algunas comunidades rurales han experimentado incrementos de hasta 25 %.</span></p><p><span>“St. Mary’s agradece a SRP y a sus generosos empleados por apoyar la colecta de alimentos de este año”, dijo Milt Liu, presidente y director ejecutivo de St. Mary’s Food Bank. “El verano es una de las épocas más difíciles del año, ya que la demanda aumenta mientras muchas familias enfrentan una mayor presión económica. Esta donación permitirá proporcionar aproximadamente 146,960 comidas y llega en un momento crucial”.</span></p><p><span>Este año, SRP adelantó la fecha de su colecta anual de alimentos para ayudar a garantizar que los bancos de alimentos locales contaran con recursos adicionales durante los meses de verano, una época en la que la necesidad de asistencia alimentaria suele incrementarse.</span></p><p><span>“Estamos profundamente agradecidos con todo el equipo de SRP por dar un paso al frente en un año en el que muchos habitantes de Arizona han enfrentado dificultades económicas y han tenido problemas para cubrir sus gastos básicos”, dijo Jason Reed, director ejecutivo de United Food Bank. “La inseguridad alimentaria ha alcanzado algunos de los niveles más altos que hemos visto en años recientes, lo que hace que apoyos como este sean más importantes que nunca. Estamos sumamente agradecidos por la generosa donación de SRP, que nos ayudará a proporcionar comidas nutritivas a personas y familias que enfrentan hambre en nuestra comunidad”.</span></p><p><span>Desde el lanzamiento de la colecta anual de alimentos en 2017, los empleados de SRP han donado más de 74,600 latas de alimentos y $227,900 para apoyar los esfuerzos de combate al hambre en Arizona.</span></p><p><span>La campaña récord de este año refleja el compromiso continuo de los empleados de ayudar a sus vecinos y </span>de<span>fortalecer las comunidades a las que sirven.

"Summer is one of the most challenging times of the year as demand rises while many families face additional financial pressures. This donation will provide approximately 146,960 meals and could not have come at a better time."</span></p><p><span>This year, SRP adjusted the timing of its annual food drive to </span>ensure food and financial donations reach local food banks during the summer months, when <span>need is especially high.</span></p><p><span>“We are deeply grateful to the entire team at SRP for stepping up during a year when so many Arizonans have faced financial hardship and struggled to make ends meet,” said Jason Reed, CEO of United Food Bank. “Food insecurity has reached some of the highest levels we’ve seen in recent years, making support like this more important than ever. We are incredibly thankful for SRP’s generous donation, which will help us provide nutritious meals to individuals and families experiencing hunger throughout our community.”</span></p><p><span>Since the launch of the annual food drive in 2017, SRP employees have donated more than 74,600 cans of food and $227,900 to support hunger-relief efforts across Arizona. This year's record-breaking campaign reflects employees' ongoing commitment to helping neighbors in need and strengthening the communities they serve.</span></p><p><span>Community members interested in supporting hunger-relief efforts can learn more or make a donation by visiting </span><a href="https://www.stmarysfoodbank.org/">stmarysfoodbank.org</a><span> and </span><a href="https://unitedfoodbank.org/"><span>unitedfoodbank.org</span></a><span>.</span></p>]]></description><category><![CDATA[news]]></category>

Senator T.J. Shope (R-Coolidge) sponsored the bill and championed its passage through the legislature.</span></p><p><span>Utility workers across Arizona respond to emergencies, maintain infrastructure, and support communities during extreme weather and other critical situations. The enactment of SB 1448, the Utility Worker Protection Act, provides additional legal protections that recognize the essential nature of this work and are intended to deter acts of violence against those performing it. The new law, which designates attacks on on-duty utility workers as aggravated assault, will take effect in September.</span></p><p><span>“Arizona’s utility workers perform their duties in challenging, sometimes hazardous conditions to keep energy and water flowing, and communications systems operating safely and reliably,” said Susan Gray, CEO of Tucson Electric Power (TEP) and UniSource Energy Services. “With the signing of SB 1448, Governor Hobbs has taken an important step to reinforce protections for these essential workers who work tirelessly to serve our communities.”</span></p><p><span>Utilities and labor organizations in support of the bill are extending their gratitude to Shope for his leadership and commitment to enhancing worker safety and protecting Arizona’s critical infrastructure. Organizations supporting the bill include TEP and UniSource, Salt River Project, Arizona Public Service, Southwest Gas, Arizona Municipal Water Users Association (AMWUA), Cox Communications, and the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW).</span></p><p><span>&nbsp;“The dedicated individuals who keep water flowing for millions of Arizonans perform critical work that our communities depend on every day,” said Warren Tenney, Executive Director of the Arizona Municipal Water Users Association (AMWUA). “The Utility Workers Protection Act ensures that those who threaten or assault field workers are held accountable. This law allows utility professionals to prioritize public service without compromising their safety. We are grateful to Governor Hobbs, Senator Shope, and our legislators for championing this initiative.”</span></p><p><span>Other professionals who serve the public, including teachers, health care workers, transit employees, and law enforcement officers, already benefit from similar protections.</span></p><p><span>"On behalf of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers in Arizona, we extend our sincere appreciation to Governor Hobbs for signing SB 1448, the Arizona Utility Worker Protection Act, and to Senator TJ Shope for his leadership in sponsoring this important legislation that strengthens protections for the men and women who keep our communities safe and powered,” said Frank Grijalva, International Representative with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and founding member of the Southern Arizona Energy Alliance.” This bipartisan effort reflects a shared commitment across labor, management, and state leadership to safeguard utility workers who face increasing threats in the course of providing essential services to Arizona."</span></p><p><span>"Our employees work in demanding and often unpredictable conditions to provide safe and reliable natural gas service to the communities we serve.&nbsp; Safety is the foundation of our culture and informs every decision we make,” said Justin Brown, President and Chief Executive Officer of Southwest Gas. “We appreciate Governor Hobbs and the Arizona Legislature for advancing legislation that strengthens protections for utility workers and reinforces the importance of safe operation as we serve customers across Arizona."</span></p><p><a href="https://www.tep.com/field-workers/"><span style="color:#000000;"><span><strong>Tucson Electric Power</strong></span></span></a><span style="color:#000000;"><span><strong> </strong>and<strong> </strong></span></span><a href="https://www.uesaz.com/"><span style="color:#000000;"><span><strong>UniSource Energy Services</strong></span></span></a><span style="color:#000000;"><span><strong>:&nbsp;</strong></span></span><span>TEP&nbsp;serves about 457,000 electric&nbsp;customers in Southern Arizona.&nbsp;UniSource provides natural gas and electric service to&nbsp;about 277,000 customers in Northern and Southern Arizona.

The project is planned to be co-located on the site of SRP’s Coronado Generating Station (CGS) in St. Johns, Arizona, and it will be developed under a 20-year tolling agreement, with Energy Dome owning and operating the facility and SRP dispatching its output.&nbsp;</p><p>The project is also part of Google and SRP’s innovative <a href="https://media.srpnet.com/srp-and-google-launch-collaboration-to-advance-long-duration-energy-storage-innovation-grid-resilience-in-arizona/" target="_blank">collaboration&nbsp;</a> to accelerate deployment of non-lithium-ion long-duration energy storage (LDES) technologies that support reliability, affordability and sustainability. It will store enough energy to power approximately 4,275 homes for 10 hours. The project was selected through a Request for Proposals for LDES pilots issued by SRP in 2024. Google will fund a portion of the project through a cost-sharing agreement with SRP.&nbsp;</p><p>Claudio Spadacini, Founder and CEO of Energy Dome, said: “Arizona’s sustained growth makes it one of the most compelling energy markets in the country. At a time when AI growth and rising demand are reshaping America’s energy landscape, the CO2 Battery offers the scalable, dispatchable capacity needed to strengthen U.S. energy dominance. We are proud to support SRP with a solution that can be built quickly, manufactured domestically, and supported by our expanding U.S. capabilities, helping SRP increase energy security by harnessing locally produced Arizona power.”&nbsp;</p><p>The system will utilize Energy Dome’s CO2 Battery and proprietary thermomechanical long-duration energy storage process. The technology works by using power from the grid to compress and store CO2, then, when power is needed, expanding the CO2 through a turbine to generate energy to send back to the grid. This project has accelerated Energy Dome’s investment in U.S. supply chain development that supports its broader mission to bring affordable, reliable energy to benefit U.S. energy customers and create American jobs.</p><p>"As energy demand continues to grow, SRP is evaluating new energy storage technologies that could support SRP’s effort to diversify its battery energy storage portfolio as we work to meet the Valley’s growing energy needs with affordable, reliable and sustainable power,” said Chico Hunter, SRP Manager of Innovation and Development. "This project will enable SRP to test the real-world performance of Energy Dome's technology in the Arizona climate."&nbsp;</p><p>SRP is working to at least double the number of generating resources on its power system by 2035 to meet increasing energy demand in the Phoenix metropolitan area. Energy storage is an important part of that effort.&nbsp;</p><p>"At Google, we are committed to catalyzing next-generation energy technologies to bolster grid resilience and introduce vital new capacity to the system,” said Lucia Tian, Director of Advanced Energy Technologies at Google. “This second project and important milestone in our collaboration with SRP builds on our <a href="https://blog.google/company-news/outreach-and-initiatives/sustainability/long-term-energy-storage/" target="_blank">long-term partnership </a>with Energy Dome, and will help deliver dependable, cost-effective, and sustainable energy for Arizona’s ratepayers.”&nbsp;</p><p>The energy storage project is expected to come online in 2029. SRP and Energy Dome will work with Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), an independent, non-profit energy R&D institute, to monitor performance data from the project.</p><p><strong>About Energy Dome</strong><br>Energy Dome is a leading provider of innovative capacity solutions for utilities and AI infrastructure, powered by its patented CO2 Battery technology.

Throughout the project no water will be wasted. Water drawn from Canyon Lake will be used to satisfy normal deliveries to SRP water customers. In addition, water will continue to be stored in other reservoirs with no interruption in water delivery.</span></p><p><span>While maintenance is regularly performed on the dams, some critical equipment is located underwater, which makes it inaccessible without lowering the lake level. The work will focus on the normally submerged portions of Mormon Flat and Horse Mesa dams, as well as the river channel downstream of Horse Mesa Dam.</span></p><p><span>The drawdown project has several important benefits, including:</span></p><ul style="list-style-type:disc;"><li data-list-item-id="ef3ac6424a20fea4c6cc21abeed88c32f"><span>Supporting operational safety of the dams for water storage and flood control.</span></li><li data-list-item-id="e91f0a9a6254582dc225278568c59eee6"><span>Ensuring water reliability for more than 2.5 million Valley residents.</span></li><li data-list-item-id="e175b7060efc83dde6c6a5bd380ec5dba"><span>Providing an opportunity for SRP and other agencies and businesses to perform any necessary maintenance work and repairs to their Canyon Lake facilities.</span></li></ul><p><span>It will take approximately four weeks to lower the water&nbsp;level; approximately eight weeks to complete the inspection and maintenance work; and approximately four weeks to fill the lake back to the normal level using water from upstream reservoirs.</span></p><p><span>Canyon Lake has over 57,000 acre-feet of water storage capacity – enough to provide water for about 173,000 Arizona families for a year.

SRP is committed to maintaining adequate water supplies for long-term future use.</span></p><p><span>To learn more about the project, visit the&nbsp;</span><a href="http://srp.net/canyonlakedrawdown"><span>Canyon Lake Drawdown</span></a><span> webpage.</span></p>]]></description><category><![CDATA[news]]></category>

The event,&nbsp;which will be held&nbsp;on June 18, 2026, invites&nbsp;Arizonans living in rural communities across the state&nbsp;to highlight their business&nbsp;idea&nbsp;or innovation to a panel of judges in a Shark Tank-style pitching&nbsp;contest. Local winners will earn cash prizes and move on to compete at&nbsp;the&nbsp;state title event on October 24.&nbsp;Local prizes include $1,200 for first place, $900 for second&nbsp;place&nbsp;and $600 for third place. SRP is a state-level sponsor of the Moonshot Rural Arizona Pitch Competition.</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">The&nbsp;pitch competition&nbsp;is free and open to all aspiring entrepreneurs and local business owners&nbsp;in Apache County.&nbsp;High school and college-age students are encouraged to participate.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">“Many entrepreneurs have great ideas, but they lack the networking necessary to get them in front of the ‘right people’ so their ideas&nbsp;can take flight,” said Preston Raban,&nbsp;Director of Economic Development, Apache County.&nbsp;“The Moonshot folks are a powerful networking organization and could be exactly what these ideas, and the folks behind them,&nbsp;need to be the next&nbsp;big thing.&nbsp;We’ve&nbsp;had&nbsp;an incredible&nbsp;experience working with the Moonshot team. They are dialed-in professionals, and they look at their tour stop winners as people who can contribute to their communities by creating jobs and revenue that will strengthen their economies.”&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">In&nbsp;2025, Hometown Fresh Farm, a&nbsp;hydroponic farm&nbsp;growing&nbsp;crops in rural Arizona for the surrounding communities,&nbsp;won the St. Johns stop of the Moonshot Rural AZ Pitch Tour and was recognized as a statewide crowd favorite.&nbsp;The farm uses hydroponics to conserve water and land while producing crops that&nbsp;have been historically hard to source locally.&nbsp;The farm&nbsp;ultimately aims&nbsp;to partner with schools in the White Mountain region and Navajo Nation to provide students with&nbsp;fresh, locally sourced produce.&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">“Without Moonshot, we would not have started our business. It was the catalyst we needed to get serious about our idea and figure out how to make it a reality,” said Michael Lindsey, Owner, Hometown Fresh Farm. “The feedback we received along the way helped us&nbsp;dial in&nbsp;our business plan. Winning the crowd favorite award&nbsp;validated&nbsp;our idea and gave us the confidence to bet on ourselves and build the business.”&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">Moonshot, an Arizona-based nonprofit organization dedicated to fostering entrepreneurship and innovation in communities of all sizes across the state, offers free registration and participation.

SRP provides water to about 2.5 million Valley residents, delivering 260 billion gallons of water (800,000 acre-feet) each year, and manages a 13,000-square-mile watershed that includes an extensive system of reservoirs, wells, irrigation laterals, and 131 miles of canals.</span></p>]]></pp:boilerplate><description><![CDATA[<p><span>Today, the Bureau of Reclamation and agencies in California, Nevada and Arizona signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) at the Claude “Bud” Lewis Carlsbad Desalination Plant to jointly explore new water supply solutions for the Colorado River Basin.</span></p><p><span>The MOU aims to improve long-term water management in the Colorado River Basin by advancing discussions to develop a framework that could allow for interstate water exchanges. The goal is to discuss a pathway that would allow agencies to partner across state borders on desalination, recycled water and other water supply projects that would benefit multiple states.</span></p><p><span>The MOU was signed by the Bureau of Reclamation, San Diego County Water Authority, Metropolitan Water District of Southern California, Southern Nevada Water Authority, the Arizona Department of Water Resources, Central Arizona Project and Salt River Project.</span></p><p><span>Interstate exchanges can be an important next step in successfully managing limited Colorado River supplies in the future by allowing shared financing of new supply projects that, through operational flexibility, could provide water to participating agencies when they need it most – taking advantage of variations in local hydrology across the Basin and other factors. Future water exchanges would use existing infrastructure and avoid costly new infrastructure without changing or reallocating existing rights or obligating parties to projects. &nbsp;</span></p><p><span>Long-term drought has reduced Colorado River system water storage to about 36% of capacity, and the combination of the lowest snowpack on record and record-breaking heat has further intensified drought conditions. These compounding factors create elevated risks to essential water and power infrastructure that supply water to more than 43 million people, underscoring the need for near-term actions to balance supply and demand.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p><p><span><strong>What the signatories said:</strong></span></p><p><span>“Next-generation strategies in the face of climate volatility must include interstate partnerships that deliver water where it’s needed most.&nbsp; We appreciate the collaboration with the Bureau of Reclamation and all the other agencies involved. New ideas are challenging to implement, but it’s in everyone’s best interest to make this work.” – <strong>Dan Denham, General Manager, San Diego County Water Authority</strong></span></p><p><span>“Across the Colorado River Basin, water users are developing new supply projects to reduce reliance on the river. But some of the larger projects require significant investment. The MOU signed today demonstrates our commitment to discussing how to develop flexible partnerships across borders to pool funding, advance projects, and allow water to be shared when and where it is needed most.” – <strong>Shivaji Deshmukh, General Manager, Metropolitan Water District of Southern California</strong></span></p><p><span>“As Colorado River conditions grow more challenging, regional partnerships like this are an essential tool to help ensure sustainable water supplies. This agreement allows us to explore forward-thinking, strategic investments that will strengthen water resilience in Southern Nevada and across the Lower Basin.” – <strong>John Entsminger, General Manager, Southern Nevada Water Authority</strong></span></p><p><span>“This is an important step in addressing the goal of augmenting the water supplies of the Colorado River by creating a mechanism to deliver those supplies through an exchange using existing infrastructure. It represents the kind of innovation that Arizona and its Lower Basin partners believe is needed from all the Colorado River states to help stabilize the system in the long term.” – <strong>Tom Buschatzke, Director, Arizona Department of Water Resources</strong></span></p><p><span>“This MOU is important because we are agreeing to discuss innovative ways to help each other and secure our future water supplies. When you have good partners, you can find collaborative opportunities that benefit all.” – <strong>Brenda Burman, General Manager, Central Arizona Project</strong></span></p><p><span>“This agreement demonstrates the Lower Basin states’ commitment to work together to explore ways to supplement our water supplies as we continue to experience Colorado River shortages. SRP supports collaborative and strategic options and projects to develop and deliver resilient and reliable water for all of Central Arizona.” –&nbsp; <strong>Leslie Meyers, Salt River Project Associate General Manager and Chief Water Resources Executive</strong></span></p><p><span>For more information, contact:</span></p><ul><li data-list-item-id="e41aede9dd27259f193d5b4b876087816"><span>&nbsp;Jordan Beane, San Diego County Water Authority, (858) 221-3975| </span><a href="mailto:jbeane@sdcwa.org" target="_blank"><span><u>jbeane@sdcwa.org</u></span></a></li><li data-list-item-id="e35e92ae2b2a2bcf70c741409993fb6d1"><span>Rebecca Kimitch, Metropolitan Water District, (202) 821-5253 | </span><a class="ck-anchor" id="mailto:rkimitch@mwdh2o.com" name="mailto:rkimitch@mwdh2o.com" href="mailto:rkimitch@mwdh2o.com"><span>rkimitch@mwdh2o.com</span></a></li><li data-list-item-id="e5f6703a81028550101cb44d442a65c41"><span>Bronson Mack, Southern Nevada Water Authority, (702) 249-5518 | </span><a class="ck-anchor" id="mailto:bronson.mack@snwa.com" name="mailto:bronson.mack@snwa.com" href="mailto:bronson.mack@snwa.com"><span>bronson.mack@snwa.com</span></a></li><li data-list-item-id="e337237f20100e94cde03b79b3fccd30a"><span>Doug MacEachern, Arizona Department of Water Resources, (602) 510-0104 | </span><a class="ck-anchor" id="mailto:dmaceachern@azwater.gov" name="mailto:dmaceachern@azwater.gov" href="mailto:dmaceachern@azwater.gov"><span>dmaceachern@azwater.gov</span></a></li><li data-list-item-id="e8dbacc21453fb9752f8de75802427566"><span>DeEtte Person, Central Arizona Project, (480) 620-7685 | </span><a class="ck-anchor" id="mailto:dperson@cap-az.com" name="mailto:dperson@cap-az.com" href="mailto:dperson@cap-az.com"><span>dperson@cap-az.com</span></a></li><li data-list-item-id="ea38a6da876ca5d34fa43d1f224cc9ffa"><span>Jennifer Schuricht, Salt River Project, (480) 625-5070 | </span><a href="mailto:jennifer.schuricht@srpnet.com"><span>jennifer.schuricht@srpnet.com</span></a></li></ul><p style="text-align:center;"><span># # #</span></p><p style="text-align:justify;"><i><span>The San Diego County Water Authority sustains a $267 billion regional economy and the quality of life for 3.3 million residents through a multi-decade water supply diversification plan, major infrastructure investments and forward-thinking policies that promote fiscal and environmental responsibility.

Los fondos también ayudarán a ofrecer servicios esenciales de alivio ante el calor, incluidos centros de enfriamiento y de descanso, iniciativas de plantación de árboles, apoyo a personas en situación de calle y programas de educación comunitaria.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">“A medida que el Valle experimenta periodos más prolongados de calor extremo, en SRP reconocemos la importancia de apoyar a organizaciones que atienden las crecientes necesidades de nuestra comunidad, especialmente las de nuestros residentes más vulnerables”, dijo Anne Rickard, directora de alianzas comunitarias de SRP. “Al colaborar con agencias que atienden tanto la exposición al calor en exteriores como las condiciones inseguras en interiores, podemos ayudar a reducir los riesgos relacionados con el calor”.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">El financiamiento se complementará con el voluntariado de empleados de SRP. A principios de este año, para prepararse para los meses de verano, los empleados armaron 3,250 kits de alivio contra el calor—tres veces más que en 2025—y los distribuyeron a cuatro organizaciones locales: Arizona Faith Network, Circle&nbsp;the&nbsp;City, Phoenix&nbsp;Rescue&nbsp;Mission y St. Vincent de Paul.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">“El calor extremo es uno de los riesgos más graves para las personas mayores y las familias de bajos ingresos en Arizona”, señaló Tami Bohannon, presidenta y directora ejecutiva de AllThrive365. “A medida que los veranos son más largos e intensos, la inversión de SRP en la reparación y reemplazo de aire acondicionado no solo ayuda a reducir costos en el hogar, sino que también es una medida fundamental para proteger la salud. Este apoyo permite que nuestros vecinos se mantengan seguros, conserven su independencia y vivan más tiempo y con mejor calidad de vida en sus propios hogares”.&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">Entre las organizaciones beneficiarias del apoyo de SRP para alivio del calor en 2026 se encuentran&nbsp;AllThrive&nbsp;365 (antes&nbsp;Foundation&nbsp;for&nbsp;Senior&nbsp;Living), Arizona Faith Network, Arizona&nbsp;Sustainability&nbsp;Alliance, Casa Grande CG Helps, Circle&nbsp;the&nbsp;City, Justa Center, Keys&nbsp;to&nbsp;Change, Phoenix&nbsp;ToolBank,&nbsp;Salvation&nbsp;Army, St. Vincent de Paul, Stardust, The Nature&nbsp;Conservancy, Valley&nbsp;of&nbsp;the&nbsp;Sun&nbsp;United&nbsp;Way y&nbsp;Wildfire.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">SRP también aporta 5 millones de dólares al programa de&nbsp;asistencia para el&nbsp;pago de&nbsp;recibos&nbsp;de SRP, administrado por&nbsp;Wildfire. Estos fondos se distribuyen entre diversas organizaciones comunitarias sin fines de lucro que brindan apoyo a clientes elegibles de SRP con dificultades para pagar sus servicios.&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">SRP ofrece múltiples opciones para ayudar a sus clientes a administrar sus costos de energía, reducir su consumo y acceder a apoyo comunitario.

SRP provides water to about 2.5 million Valley residents, delivering 260 billion gallons of water (800,000 acre-feet) each year, and manages a 13,000-square-mile watershed that includes an extensive system of reservoirs, wells, irrigation laterals, and 131 miles of canals.</span></p>]]></pp:boilerplate><description><![CDATA[<p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">Salt River Project (SRP) today announced it will more than double its investment in heat resiliency efforts across&nbsp;central Arizona.&nbsp;</span></p><p>With $1.3 million in funding to local nonprofits and community organizations, SRP will directly impact its customers by increasing its support for<span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;HVAC repair or replacement programs. The funding will also help deliver critical heat relief services, including cooling and respite centers,&nbsp;tree‑planting&nbsp;initiatives, outreach to unsheltered populations and community education.&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">“As&nbsp;the Valley&nbsp;experiences longer periods&nbsp;of&nbsp;extreme heat,&nbsp;SRP&nbsp;recognizes&nbsp;the&nbsp;importance&nbsp;of&nbsp;supporting&nbsp;organizations that&nbsp;help address the&nbsp;increasing&nbsp;needs of our community, especially those of our most vulnerable residents,” said Anne Rickard, Director of Community Partnerships at SRP. “By partnering with agencies that&nbsp;manage&nbsp;both outdoor heat exposure and unsafe indoor conditions, we can help reduce&nbsp;</span>heat-related<span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;risks.”&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">The funding will be augmented by&nbsp;SRP&nbsp;employee&nbsp;volunteer&nbsp;efforts.&nbsp;</span>Earlier this year, to prepare for the summer months, employees built 3,250 heat relief kits, three times as many as in 2025, and distributed them to four local agencies, which included the Arizona Faith Network, Circle the City, Phoenix Rescue Mission, and St. Vincent de Paul.<span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">“Extreme heat is one of the most serious risks facing older adults and&nbsp;</span>low-income<span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;families in Arizona,” said Tami Bohannon, President&nbsp;and&nbsp;CEO&nbsp;at AllThrive365. “With summers growing longer and more intense, SRP’s investment in AC repair and&nbsp;replacement serves the community as both a&nbsp;cost-saving&nbsp;utility upgrade and a critical health intervention. This support helps our neighbors stay safe, remain independent, and age longer and healthier in their own homes.”&nbsp;&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">Recipients of SRP’s 2026&nbsp;heat&nbsp;relief&nbsp;support include&nbsp;All Thrive 365 (Formerly Foundation for Senior Living), Arizona Faith Network,&nbsp;Arizona Sustainability Alliance,&nbsp;Casa Grande CG Helps, Circle the City,&nbsp;Justa Center,&nbsp;Keys to Change,&nbsp;Phoenix&nbsp;ToolBank,&nbsp;Salvation Army, St. Vincent de Paul, Stardust,&nbsp;The Nature&nbsp;Conservancy, Valley of the Sun United Way and Wildfire.&nbsp;</span></p><p style="margin-left:0px;text-align:left;"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;">SRP&nbsp;also&nbsp;provides&nbsp;$5 million&nbsp;to&nbsp;the SRP Bill Assistance Program administered&nbsp;by&nbsp;Wildfire.

SRP provides water to about 2.5 million Valley residents, delivering 260 billion gallons of water (800,000 acre-feet) each year, and manages a 13,000-square-mile watershed that includes an extensive system of reservoirs, wells, irrigation laterals, and 131 miles of canals.</span></p>]]></pp:boilerplate><description><![CDATA[<p style="margin-left:0in;"><span>Salt River Project (SRP) crews connected 13 families to electricity in the western Navajo Nation this spring through the Light Up Navajo VII initiative.</span></p><p><span>To electrify the 13 homes, SRP crews worked a combined 3,753 hours over two weeks, installing 108 primary poles, 25 secondary poles and 10 transformers, and stringing 91,866 feet of wire.</span></p><p><span>This year, Light Up Navajo VII brought together 53 utility companies from 24 states. SRP contributed a team of 19 employees to support the effort. With support from participating utilities, </span>the goal is <span>to extend electricity to at least 300 homes by the end of August.</span></p><p><span dir="auto">“This year, we worked in very different terrain with sand almost everywhere,” said Thomas Gerbig, SRP Lineman. “Even with four‑wheel‑drive vehicles, we often got stuck so we relied on an NTUA tractor with tracks for part of our work. Digging a single pole hole could take nearly an hour, compared to about 15 minutes in the city. I would come back every year to work on this project. The physical and weather challenges we face don’t compare to seeing the smile of someone turning on a light in their home for the first time.”</span></p><p><span>Light Up Navajo is a humanitarian initiative launched in 2019 to bring electricity to homes across the Navajo Nation that still lack access to power. The program stems from a partnership created by the American Public Power Association (APPA) and the Navajo Tribal Utility Authority (NTUA).</span></p><p><span>“Ten years ago, I had a dream of moving back to the reservation and building a place for my kids in the place where I grew up and the hills I played on</span>,<span>” said Elysia Yazzie, NTUA customer. “Electricity will make our lives easier, and our dreams come true.”</span></p><p><span>According to&nbsp;APPA, there are 400,000 Navajo citizens and approximately 185,000 live across the 27,000‑square‑mile Navajo Nation, which spans across northern Arizona, northwestern New Mexico and southeastern Utah. Of the roughly 55,000 homes in the region, an estimated&nbsp;9,377&nbsp;still do not have electricity — representing nearly&nbsp;70% of U.S. households without power.&nbsp;</span></p><p><span>“We are incredibly grateful to SRP crews for their dedication and hard work,” said Deenise Becenti, Government and Public Affairs Manager at NTUA. “We know that bringing power to this area can be extremely challenging due to long distances between homes, rugged terrain and changing weather conditions.”</span></p><p><span>To date, SRP has installed 1,095 wood poles, strung 603,227 feet of wire, set 118 transformers, and provided reliable power to 159 families for the first time.</span></p><p><span>SRP crews are scheduled to return to the Navajo Nation in the fall to continue connecting more homes to the electric grid.</span></p>]]></description><category><![CDATA[news]]></category>

SRP’s plan includes the addition of thousands of megawatts of renewable energy, including solar, as well as natural gas and battery energy storage resources.</span></p><p>The agreement calls for the construction of 500 MW of solar per year from 2029 through 2034. The projects developed under this agreement will deliver low-cost energy for SRP customers and create long-term community benefits across Arizona.&nbsp;<span>&nbsp;</span></p><p><span>“We look forward to working with NextEra Energy Resources to add the magnitude of new solar energy we need at the pace required to meet the increasing energy demand of our customers,” said Bobby Olsen, SRP Associate General Manager and Chief Power System Executive. “This approach will allow us to collaborate early in the project development process to minimize project risk and ensure the best outcomes for our customers and the communities where we operate.”</span></p><p><span>NextEra Energy Resources has already developed more than 1,000 MW of resources across five projects currently serving SRP customers including Sonoran Solar Energy Center, Storey Energy Center, Saint Solar Energy Center, Pinal Central Energy Center and Babbitt Ranch Energy Center.</span></p><p>“As America’s largest energy infrastructure builder, we are uniquely positioned to meet SRP’s needs,” said Brian Bolster, NextEra Energy Resources President and CEO. “We are excited to continue building on our long-standing relationship with SRP and to continue to invest in Arizona to help power the state’s growth with low-cost solar power.”</p><p><span>NextEra Energy Resources was selected through an SRP Request for Proposals issued in 2024.</span></p><p><span>The solar development agreement will complement SRP’s existing procurement and self-build processes. It does not replace SRP’s All-Source Request for Proposals process.</span></p><p>SRP has more than 3,000 MW of carbon-free resources currently serving its customers, including more than 1,500 MW of solar and more than 1,570 MW of battery storage supporting its grid. SRP also has more solar energy and storage capacity under development.</p>]]></description><category><![CDATA[news]]></category>
