In order to deal with this problem effectively, promote economic and social development of Arizona, the Central Arizona Project(CAP) ( CAP ) was constructed by the federal government in 1990s. 为有效解决地下水超采问题,同时促进亚利桑那州经济和社会发展,美国政府于20世纪90年代兴建了中央亚利桑那调水工程。
When the Central Arizona Project(CAP) ( CAP ) is fully on line, the Metropolitan Water District of Southern California ( MWD ) will lose a large proportion of Colorado River water rights. 中央亚利桑那调水工程达到输水规模后,南加州市政水管区有权利用的科罗拉多河水量大幅降低。
