PHOENIX – November 02, 2026 -- Arcadis (EURONEXT: ARCAD) will serve as lead engineering firm for the appraisal of the proposed Northern Gulf of California Desalination Project, a concept that could ultimately make up to 500,000 acre-feet of water supply available to Arizona.

The Water Infrastructure Finance Authority of Arizona (WIFA) Board of Directors has approved Stage 1 of its multi-stage appraisal process. Arcadis will work alongside Sacyr Water and the wider project team to provide engineering and technical analysis for WIFA.

Stage 1 authorizes analysis only, with no development or funding decision

Stage 1 covers initial analysis. It does not constitute a decision on project development or future funding, which WIFA will evaluate separately based on the appraisal results. WIFA's process tests each potential new water source for technical, financial, environmental, cultural, and regulatory viability.
