FACT SHEET of Environmental Quality Publication Number: FS 16 -15 Arizona Department FACT SHEET of Environmental Quality Publication Number: FS 16 -15 Ambient Groundwater Quality of the Salt River Basin: A 2001-2015 Baseline Study – June 2016 Introduction The Arizona Department of Environmen- tal Quality (ADEQ) Ambient Groundwater Monitoring Program conducted a baseline study to characterize the groundwater quality of the Salt River basin from 2001 to 2015. ADEQ carried out this task under Arizona Revised Statutes §49-225 that mandates monitoring of waters of the state including its aquifers. The fact sheet is a synopsis of the ADEQ Open-File Re- port 16-01.1 Groundwater in the Salt River basin is generally suitable for drinking water uses based on the sampling results from this study. The Salt River basin comprises 5,232 square miles within east-central Arizona and includes portions of Apache, Gila, Greenlee, Maricopa, and Navajo coun- ties. The basin extends from the White Figure 1 - Map of the Salt River Basin Mountains located near the New Mexico *This map is for general reference only and may not be all inclusive.

Stewart Mountain Dam forms Saguaro Lake (Figure 1). The basin’s population was 29,057 in 2000, most of who lived in the communities of Globe, Miami, Young, and in Fort Apache and Whiteriver on the White Mountain Apache Nation.² Most land is used for recreation and live- stock grazing, with major copper mines located in the Globe-Miami area. Mid-to-high elevation mountain ranges, plateaus, and canyons characterize the basin. Land ownership consists of tribal lands of the White Mountain Apache and the San Carlos Apache nations (59 percent), federal lands managed by the Figure 2 - Theodore Roosevelt Lake with the new highway bridge that was completed in 1996.

The basin has minimal groundwater storage capabilities and high runoff be- cause of the prevalence of bedrock and steep gradients. Groundwater resources depend on short-term recharge and are impacted by drought and well pump- ing.⁵ Important aquifers include recent stream alluvium, volcanic rock (the Pinetop- Lakeside Aquifer), and sedimentary rock (Gila Conglomerate; C and R aquifers). Well yields vary widely, ranging up to greater than 2,000 gallons per minute (gpm) based on 140 wells (Figure 3). Natural recharge to the basin is esti- mated to be 178,000 acre-feet per year. An estimated 8.7 million acre-feet is in storage to a depth of 1,200 feet.⁶ Four sub-basins comprise the Salt River basin. From east to west in a downgradi- ent progression, they are the Black River White River, Salt River Canyon, and Salt River Lakes.

Most importantly, declining instream flows have impacted southwestern stream fish assemblages. Maintenance of water flows that sustain viable fish communities is key in maintaining the ecological function of river ecosystems in arid regions. Efforts to calculate the optimal amount of water that will ensure long-term viability of species in a stream community require that the specific habitat requirements for all species in the community be known. Habitat suitability criteria (HSC) are used to translate structural and hydraulic characteristics of streams into indices of habitat quality for fishes. Habitat suitability criteria summarize the preference of fishes for numerous habitat variables. We estimated HSC for water depth, water velocity, substrate, and water temperature for the fishes of Cherry Creek, Arizona, a perennial desert stream.

Apache and San Carlos Indian Reservations. During this period many reports summarizing fishery management activities have been submitted. None, however, has dealt with the important Black and Salt Rivers or their fishery potential. This report summarizes the- results of preliminary fishery investigations on the Salt and Black Rivers, including fishery potentials, and Is directed to the Tribal organization and•agencies of the San Carlos and Ft.-Apache Indian Reservations. The Black and Salt Rivers of Arizona flow through some of the most- spectacular canyons of the Southwest. The Salt River Canyon crossing at Highway 60 is often referred to as.the second-Grand Canyon of Arizona, with vividly colored canyon walls rising vertically more than 3,000. feet. The Black River follows a major - - - rift through basalt rock that is often narrow and exceeds 26000 feet in depth in many places. Canyons, alternately widening and boxing, extending from alpine to upper sonorian life zones, are characteristic of the study area Stands of virgin . spruce and ponderosa pine lend beauty to the.
