Arizona’s congressional delegation has introduced legislation to help clear the way for Salt River Project to build a new hydro power facility, which will help the utility generate renewable energy when solar power is not readily available.

In the urgent race to find a long-term solution for water, SRP has a bold proposal to add height to an existing dam along the Verde River with new estimates on how many people it could impact.
