December 2026 SRP 230kV Payout
Tribal staff are preparing for the final 10-year Landowner payouts for the Salt River Project (SRP) and the Arizona Public Service (APS) 230-kV right-of-way easements. The SRP easement will be paid out in mid-December 2026; the APS easement will be paid out in mid-June 2027. These are the fifth and final payouts for the current SRP & APS 230-kV easements. The previous four payouts were processed in 1986/1987, 1996/1997, 2006/2007, and 2016/2017.
The upcoming payouts require a new independent appraisal. The appraisal methodology is defined in the Grant of Easement and is the same procedure that was used to determine the valuation and payout amounts in the previous four payouts. The appraisal is being reviewed by the US Department of Interior’s Appraisal and Valuation Services Office (AVSO). Actual individual payout amounts are not yet known, but staff expect that information to be available by December 4, 2026. Landowners can call the ROW Hotline at 480-362-6870, for general information and if they have questions. Staff will answer questions within 5 business days. To maintain security of personal and confidential information, Landowners are required to verify their identify and/or meet with Tribal rights- of-way staff in person before personal financial information is disclosed.
Staff believe SRP and APS will both want to renew the right-of-way easements prior to their expiration in 2036 and 2037; respectively. Stay tuned for more information on those upcoming projects.

Community Announcement: Measles Exposure Alert
Maricopa County Department of Public Health has identified several new public measles exposure sites connected to a non‑resident who tested positive for measles. There have been 25 confirmed measles cases in 2026, and Community members are encouraged to stay aware during this ongoing outbreak.
Possible Exposure Locations
Individuals who were at any of the following locations during the listed dates and times may have been exposed:
The Taco Spot (Chandler) – July 12, 2:30 PM – 5:45 PM
Sonesta Select Hotel (Chandler) – July 12–13, 4:00 PM – 1:00 PM
Chase Field (Phoenix) – July 12, 7:00 PM -12:00 AM

Tempe Marketplace – July 6, 5:00 PM – 8:30 PM
What Community Members Should Do
1. Check Your Vaccination Status
Review your immunization records to confirm you are protected against measles. Individuals who have not had measles or have not received the MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) vaccine may not be protected and should speak with a healthcare provider. The MMR vaccine is safe and the most effective way to prevent measles infections.
2. Monitor for Symptoms for 21 Days
Symptoms typically appear 7–12 days after exposure but may take up to 21 days. Watch for:
- High fever (over 101°F)
- Red, watery eyes
- Cough
- Runny nose
- A red, raised, blotchy rash that starts on the face at the hairline and spreads downward
Certain individuals — including infants under 12 months, pregnant women, and people with weakened immune systems — may be eligible for post‑exposure prophylaxis (PEP). Please contact your healthcare provider for guidance.
3. If Symptoms Develop
Stay home and call your healthcare provider before arriving in person. Inform them of your symptoms and possible exposure so you can be seen safely without exposing others.
Important Measles Information for the Community
- Measles is highly contagious and can linger in the air for up to two hours after an infected person leaves.
- 90% of unvaccinated individuals exposed to measles will become infected.
- There is no treatment for measles, but it is preventable with the MMR vaccine.
- Adults need at least one dose of MMR after age one.
- Individuals born before 1957 or who had measles as children are considered immune.
- During this outbreak, infants 6–11 months are recommended to receive an early MMR dose in addition to routine childhood doses.
- Serious long‑term complications can occur, including subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE), a rare but fatal brain infection that may appear years after the initial measles illness.
- Healthcare providers are required to report suspected measles cases within 24 hours.
- Residents can check their immunization records through myIR (Arizona Department of Health Services) or contact the MCDPH CARES Team at (602) 506‑6767 (Mon – Fri, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM).
