Marana Water Department enforces water conservation measures including watering schedules during drought conditions. The town participates in the Tucson Active Management Area (TAMA) under Arizona Department of Water Resources groundwater management.
Marana Water provides service to much of the town and enforces conservation measures aligned with Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR) Tucson Active Management Area requirements. During periods of drought or water supply concerns, the town may implement mandatory watering schedules restricting landscape irrigation to specific days and times. New developments must demonstrate an assured 100-year water supply under ARS 45-576. The town encourages xeriscaping with native desert plants and low-water-use landscaping. Marana's Land Development Code may require water-efficient landscape plans for new subdivisions. Residents on private wells are subject to ADWR well-registration and pumping regulations. CAP (Central Arizona Project) water supplies supplement groundwater for the town's municipal system.
Excessive water use during restrictions: warning, then potential service surcharges. Development without assured supply: project may be denied.
