Arizona House Representatives Regina Cobb and Leo Biasiucci, have co-sponsored House Bill 2661, which would regulate rural groundwater supplies.

It has been over 40 years since the last significant groundwater legislation, the 1980 Groundwater Management Act, that was signed into law by then-governor Bruce Babbitt.

Babbitt returned to the Arizona state legislature to promote HB 2661, according to public radio KJZZ.
