Approximately 11,000 miles of rivers, streams and washes run through Maricopa County.

To develop an enhanced river planning and management strategy, District staff adopted a process called C3RPM.

Covers an area in southeastern Pima County that drains the Arivaca Creek watershed. The purpose of the report is to estimate peak discharge for the 50 year storm frequency event, utilizing the rational method (Q=CiA).
