Arizona SB1530 amends groundwater code to require a certificate of assured water supply for building permits in active management areas.

Arizona SB1530 modifies the groundwater code to mandate that individuals or entities proposing to sell or lease subdivided land in active management areas must obtain a certificate of assured water supply from the director. This requirement applies unless the land is served by a city, town, or private water company designated as having an assured water supply. The bill also outlines procedures for the director to designate cities, towns, and private water companies with an assured water supply and mandates reporting and notification requirements for such designations.
