Town of Marana Where did we go? Continental Ranch housing development off of Ina Road Wash behind houses in Continental Ranch

and… The Ina Road Bridge: Water flow from effluent treated by the Ina Road Water Treatment Facility.

Who Showed us Around? Leslie Liberti Who is Leslie? Environmental Coordinator the Town of Marana What does Leslie do? Employee of Marana Works with developers and environmentalists Works to protect the environment by presenting ideas on how to develop land and implement less harmful methods. Contact Information for Leslie: Email: lliberti@marana.com Phone: (520) 297-2920 www.marana.com

Facts 1930’s water flow stopped in area. In 1970’s water treatment plants released effluent to allow the river to flow again. At the peak, 1% of total area of Arizona was riparian vegetation. Today, 95% of that has been lost. Marana is6th fastest growing town in U.S. Riparian Vegetation

Environmental Plans Santa Cruz River Plan Sonoran Species Act Habitat Conservation Plan Army Corps of Engineers Restoration Study Tres Rios Project

Habitat Conservation Plan Where? Town of Marana What? Examines number of roads and buildings being built, and looks at how they affect animals. Example: Burrowing Owls which burrow underground. When leveling of land takes place their holes get covers up by bulldozers and the owls die. The Burrowing Owl

Army Corps of Engineers Restoration Plan Federally funded restoration Works well because the Army Corps of Engineers gets many groups to work together.

Tres Rios del Norte Project Proposals: Connect water flows and create habitats for all animals including endangered species. Duplicate Ina Road Bridge Habitat Problems: Where is the water going to come from? Allocated water (someone has right to a certain amount of water All water in Arizona is allocated Central Arizona Project (CAP) has water available to purchase. Effluent use. Not good quality, limits what can be done with it to the environment.

Tres Rios del Norte Project Perception Issue: Residents do not want wildlife such as coyotes in neighborhoods. Fear of mosquitoes because of possible spread of disease. The White Faced Ibis

These Issues Can Be Worked Around! However… These Issues Can Be Worked Around!
