The Water Resources Division of the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with State agencies, obtains a large amount of data on the water resources of Arizona each water year. These data, accumulated during many water years, constitute a valuable data base for developing an improved understanding of the water resources of the State. To make these data readily available to interested parties outside the USGS, the data are published annually in a report series entitled "Water Resources Data for Arizona."
