L25-08060105 Menges Ranch Water Enhancement-TV Ranch

The Arizona Game and Fish Department has awarded a Cooperative Stewardship Agreement to TV Ranch LLC for the Menges Ranch Water Enhancement project. The contract, identified as CTR078393, was executed on August 21, 2025, with a performance period spanning from the award date to August 11, 2035 (ten years). The project involves installing water infrastructure at two specific sites: the Farrel Mountain site and the Lee Trail site, both located on Bureau of Land Management controlled lands.

The water enhancement project will include the installation of water storage and distribution infrastructure, specifically a 10,000-gallon storage tank and 650-gallon water trough at the Farrel Mountain site, and a 5,000-gallon storage tank and 650-gallon water trough at the Lee Trail site. The Arizona Game and Fish Department will reimburse TV Ranch LLC up to $12,300 for materials and labor. The primary objective of the project is to create permanent, wildlife-friendly water sources that will benefit wildlife populations within a half-mile radius, supporting broader conservation and habitat improvement efforts in Arizona.
