Tim Steller Back in June, Camille Touton spelled out what she wanted from the basin states — and what she would do if she didn't get it.
People are also reading… Then came Tuesday, 60 days later, and the states had failed to agree to a plan. But instead of announcing unilateral cuts, Touton's language turned mushy and opaque. "A lot of people are scratching their heads about this," Porter said."In June, when Commissioner Touton testified they would need to find 2 to 4 million acre feet to cut from the system, that was like an earthquake.
"We were looking for an outcome would be enforceable, mandatory," the director of Arizona's Department of Water Resources, Tom Buschatzke, said Tuesday afternoon."A voluntary agreement — that doesn't work for us." There are possible valid reasons that the Bureau of Reclamation pulled back on its threat to make unilateral cuts, Fleck told me.
