In Arizona, investors can speculate on water in a few different ways. They can buy land with rights to water, either ground or surface. Or they can purchase what’s called “paper water”— tradable credits for water artificially stored underground. They can also buy water, store it, and create those credits themselves. A water investor could also build a storage facility on the land it purchased and transfer the water to an aquifer, either by letting it sink through the soil or by using a new technology, vadose zone wells, and inject it.
