Our
Purpose: Working together to protect the Upper Verde River, the Coalition is committed to balancing the reasonable
water needs of the residents of the Upper Verde River Watershed Area with protection of the base flow of the Upper Verde River
to the maximum possible extent, and achieving safe-yield within the Prescott Active Management Area (AMA), by developing
BMPs (best management practices) that incorporate science-based planning, utilization and conservation of all water resources
within the Upper Verde River Watershed Area, and provide financial and staff resources to support the protection activities
of the Coalition.
| Our Goals: Acknowledging that water users throughout
the Upper Verde River Watershed Area have impacts upon surface and groundwater systems of this area, the Coalition recognizes
that water users should be responsible for their impacts. Therefore, the Coalition supports the creation of BMPs that
balance the reasonable water needs of the residents of the Upper Verde River Watershed Area with the need to preserve the
vitality, health, and future flows of the Upper Verde River, good stewardship of the water resources, and equal access to
unbiased scientific information upon which BMPs are to be based. Coalition Board Members: Chairman Mike
