Arizona Real Estate License Practice Exam

The subdivision grandfathered right is not a recognized right under the Arizona Groundwater Code. The Arizona Groundwater Code was established to manage groundwater resources effectively, especially in areas experiencing water scarcity.

The irrigation grandfathered right allows landowners to continue using groundwater for agricultural purposes based on historic usage, acknowledging the existing agricultural practices. Similarly, type 1 and type 2 non-irrigation rights refer to particular rights that allow for non-agricultural uses of groundwater.

By contrast, the concept of a subdivision grandfathered right does not exist within the established framework of the Arizona Groundwater Code, which primarily focuses on the balance between agricultural use and the conservation of groundwater resources, rather than specifically addressing development or subdivision rights. This provides clarity on the types of water usage rights created by the code and underscores the focus on sustaining Arizona's water supply in agricultural and non-irrigation contexts.
