With which of the following problems can ADWR help?

The Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR) plays a vital role in managing and regulating water resources within the state, particularly in areas designated as Irrigation Non-Expansion Areas (INA). One of the primary responsibilities of ADWR is to ensure that water is allocated and used in a sustainable manner, which includes determining irrigation rights—a critical aspect of water management in agriculture.

In an INA, ADWR helps to establish the rights for irrigation based on historical water usage and available resources. This determination is essential for farmers and landowners who rely on water for irrigation, as it defines their legal entitlements and helps them understand how much water they can expect to access for their agricultural needs. Therefore, ADWR providing assistance in determining irrigation rights in an INA directly aligns with its mission and functions regarding water resource management.

The other options, on the other hand, do not fall under the purview of ADWR. Assessing property market value, managing real estate transactions, and providing financial assistance for property purchases are typically handled by real estate professionals and financial institutions, rather than water management authorities. Thus, the focus of ADWR is specifically on water rights and resources, making the first choice the only fitting option for the capabilities of ADWR.
