For a calendar year, an area of land planted with any cool-season grass species that grows over a dormant warm-season grass species during the fall-winter period.

Ownership of a Well

ADWR maintains a registry, it does not certify legal well ownership. Wells are usually in the name of the landowner where a well resides. When the landowner or well owner changes a 55-71A Request to Change Well Information form must be filed so that the well record remains current and accurate. A.R.S. § 45-593(C).
