This plan contains the conservation programs that are intended to guide the Phoenix AMA to meet it management goal - and these conservation programs are to be designed to achieve reductions in groundwater withdrawals.
The purpose of this addendum is to update the process memorandum dated October 28, 2020, titled “Cumulative Effects Analysis Overview and Screening by Resource.” The original process memo served to outline the methods and screening results used for the analysis of cumulative effects within the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) prepared for the Resolution Copper Project by disclosing:
The objective of this plan is to support the site-wide reclamation plan (Tetra Tech 2020) by providing the strategy and design for implementing closure measures for the Skunk Camp TSF.
Determination of threatened species status under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (Act), as amended, for the cactus ferruginous pygmy-owl (Glaucidium brasilianum cactorum), a bird subspecies found in Mexico, southern Arizona, and southern Texas.
Phase I consists of the hydrologic and geologic characterization of the study area. Also presented are the definition and quantification of groundwater recharge sources, pumpage, subsurface inflows and outflows, and recommendations to fill critical data deficiencies.
Groundwater monitoring in the upper Queen Creek and Devils Canyon watersheds was initiated by RCM in early 2004. The current RCM groundwater monitoring program includes 19 wells, boreholes or shafts. Based on results of hydrogeological characterization studies conducted to date, three principal aquifers have been identified. The purpose of the groundwater monitoring program is to provide hydrologic data for continued development and refinement of the conceptual hydrogeologic model for the ALT aquifer and adjacent aquifers in the study area that might be impacted by block-c
This report summarizes the meteorological, nitrogen dioxide (NO2), sulfur dioxide (SO2), ozone (O3), and particulate matter (PM) data collected at the Resolution Copper Project near Superior, Arizona for the first quarter, January 1-March 31, 2013.
An investigation of hydrogeologic conditions for the Superior Basin has been completed by Montgomery. The chief objective of the survey was to evaluate the cause of recent water level declines reported for some wells located within and adjacent to the Queen Creek corridor through the Superior Basin, as well as observed declines in discharge from Whitlow Ranch Dam.
