Arizona Rivers Navigability Status
Description
Summary report from American Whitewater: "The Arizona Navigable Stream Adjudication Commission ("ANSAC") has determined that, with the exception of the Colorado River, none of Arizona's watercourses is navigable. Ownership of the streambeds of non-navigable watercourses rests with either the federal government or private parties. Although the public likely enjoys recreational rights on waters above federally-owned streambeds, it has no such right to access waters above privately-owned streambeds." View Document.
