Description	The project involves managing water supply for the town of Cave Creek, Arizona, which relies on the Central Arizona Project (CAP) canal for 95% of its water. Due to proposed major cuts in Colorado River water supply, Cave Creek is implementing a backup plan involving water exchanges with nearby cities and connecting to Phoenix's water treatment system as a failsafe. Long-term solutions include exploring groundwater from the Harquahala aquifer, water purchases or leases, wastewater recycling, and desalination projects.
