• All subdivisions receiving an adequacy determination are in Yavapai County.  Fifteen water adequacy determinations have been made in this basin through December 2008. Of the 1,177 lots in fourteen subdivisions for which lot information is available, 973 lots in nine subdivisions, or 83% of lots, were determined to be adequate.
• All inadequacy determinations were because the applicant chose not to submit the necessary information, and/or the available hydrologic data was insufficient to make a determination. One inadequate determination also stated the existing supply was unreliable or physically unavailable or groundwater exceeds the depth-to-water criteria.
• One analysis of adequate water supply for 50 lots has been issued for this basin.
