About Us
Mission Statement
The goal of the Aravaipa Watershed Conservation Alliance is to preserve and
sustain the Aravaipa Valley’s natural landscapes by means of watershed and
rangeland restoration. The AWCA will create a renewed environment that
supports wildlife, grassroots community education, and a holistic agricultural
environment, all while limiting fragmented lands to promote a complete and
functioning landscape for current and future generations.
One of Arizona's most diverse watersheds
The boundary of the watershed is 320,684 acres, but the working area extends that acreage to 381,272 acres. The upper watershed is vital to the health of the perennial waters downstream and the quality of waters that reach the rivers beyond. Our goal is to keep the quality and quantity of waters flowing, create safer recreational opportunities and promote sustainable open space ranching for generations to come.
The Need for Planning
The AWCA is working to create both a management plan and implementation plan that connects partners so we can work on the landscape as a whole, possibly even increase the working landscape. We would like to involve everyone that benefits from the scope of work, which includes local stakeholders, agencies, tribal partners, recreationalist and the many businesses below us that need to actively demonstrate a commitment to better water conservation now and in the future.
