Arizona’s lifeline for chip manufacturing is drying up
Water is about to get more expensive in America’s new silicon valley.
AI Summary
Arizona, a focal point of the bipartisan effort to revive U.S. chip manufacturing, is set to lose more than a quarter of the water it normally draws each year from the Colorado River. The river, stretching 1,400 miles, serves as a vital water source for Arizona and other western states. This reduction threatens the water supply that underpins the region’s semiconductor production and broader water‑dependent industries.
