SRP able to meet demand despite system being 50% full following warm spring

Salt River Project is confident they have enough water to meet demand following a warmer than normal spring. The entire SRP reservoir system, as whole, is about 54% full right now. SRP Senior Hydrologist Jake Richardson says while we had decent rain in the fall, low snowpack and an unseasonably warm spring made it difficult for much for that water runoff to reach the reservoirs.
