Earth fissures have damaged the Central Arizona Project (CAP), and threaten to do so again in the future. Many fissures exist near Reach 1 of the Tucson Aqueduct, located west of the Picacho Mountains in Pinal County, Arizona. The hazard posed by fissures in the Brady-Picacho Pumping Plants area was evaluated in a previous study (Slaff, 1991). The "Brady" fissure in particular was identified as one that could damage the Tucson Aqueduct. Slaff and Pearthree (1991) proposed a geophysical investigation to answer important questions regarding the likelihood that the Brady fissure will reach and damage the CAP. This report presents the results of that investigation.Documents in the AZGS Document Repository collection are made available by the Ar...
