The Fort Apache water story begins where the East and North forks of the White River meet. The White River is crucial to White Mountain Apache culture and spiritual life. This important waterway is a tributary of the Salt River, which supplies a large amount of Phoenix’s water. The White Mountain Apache Tribe has had a difficult relationship with the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, the State of Arizona, and the City of Phoenix. All of these government entities had a history of violating the tribe’s water and land rights to support agriculture and a growing population in the Salt River Valley.
