Tucson changes water access rules after Project Blue water use Now Tucson’s City manager is taking steps to be sure the city knows where contractors will be using city water

Data crunch: Planning Commission hears proposals for new data center zoning code Tucson officials are considering new zoning regulations for large data centers as residents and city leaders raise concerns about the industry’s potential impact on water and energy resources.

Lake Powell runoff to hit record low, putting Arizona's water supplies at risk Very dry and warm weather in the winter and early spring means Colorado River flows into Lake Powell will hit record lows this summer, a new federal forecast says.

“It shows the arrogance, and they’re not a community member yet,” Dahl said. “They’re not checking with people. They’re just- OK, let’s bleed the desert, and we need water.”

City leaders blast Beale Infrastructure over water use by Project Blue subcontractor The city of Tucson cut off water access for one of the subcontractors for the controversial Project Blue.

Tucson City Councilmember Kevin Dahl said the situation raises concerns about how the project has been handled.
“The fact that Tucson water from our utility is being used for dust control — dust control is important — but it seems that if they were better managed, they would know that they have to get water from wherever they’re going to get water to operate it,” Dahl said. “They need to make this right by giving back the two acre-feet of water that they’ve used so far.”Dahl also questioned whether developers will follow through on commitments moving forward.

The City of Tucson has formally revoked water access for contractors working on the proposed Project Blue data center after discovering city water was hauled to the construction site for dust control. The city is now demanding water credits as restitution and says it will not provide any city resources for the project.
