There is a very large reservoir under Phoenix. Water from ancient times. When they put in the water line from the Colorado river, it was more than they needed at the time, so they sent the excess into the reservoir. So they are probably good for more than long enough for the water levels to rise again. When the next El Nino comes along they will get a lot of rain and the desert will bloom big time.
