active management areas; technical correction

SB 1265 is a technical correction to Arizona's groundwater law governing "active management areas." It clarifies that groundwater use transported from legally withdrawn water is not considered illegal, and confirms that the amount of groundwater referenced in a certificate of exemption is recognized as a legal use for determining grandfathered rights. The bill modifies Section 45-462 of Arizona Revised Statutes to fix wording and improve clarity around existing groundwater rights for users in designated active management areas. It does not create new rights or change policy, only refining how current law is written.
