On June 19, Arizona Governor Bruce Babbitt delivered a copy of Arizona's new Groundwater Management Act to Secretary of the Interior Cecil Andrus in Washington. D.C. Andrus indicated that passage of this Act would have a direct bearing on his preliminary allocations of Central Arizona Project (CAP) water. President Carter recommended that "further funding of the project be contingent upon further study of groundwater supplies and institution of groundwater regulation and management by the State of Arizona."
