Arizona has really good water policies... in large cities. In fact, we have been replenishing certain aquifer levels near phoenix and there is a massive amount of effort that goes into water management. HOWEVER, outside the cities, its a free-for-all and that is where the majority of these clusterfucks are that you see. Its quite unfortunate, since the state is beautiful and it has lots of redeeming qualities.
