The Bureau of Reclamation issued a Notice of Intent to prepare an EIS for the partial assignment and transfer of 2,033.01 acre-feet per year of Arizona fourth-priority Colorado River water from GSC Farm, LLC in La Paz County to the Town of Queen Creek in Maricopa and Pinal Counties, Arizona. The EIS also covers wheeling the transferred entitlement through the Central Arizona Project and associated changes in place of use, type of use, and points of diversion. The EIS is required by a U.S. District Court order following a legal challenge to a 2022 EA and FONSI. Scoping comments are due October 15, 2025, and a Final EIS is expected within two years.12
