37-1126. Hearings; notice
A. The commission shall schedule public hearings to receive additional evidence and testimony relating to navigability or nonnavigability of each watercourse, and, if the commission finds a watercourse is navigable, the commission shall schedule public hearings to identify and make a public report of any public trust values associated with the watercourse. The hearings shall be held at the commission's office or, in the case of a hearing concerning a watercourse located principally outside of Maricopa county, at the county seat of the county in which the predominant portion of the particular watercourse is located. The commission may schedule additional hearings at other locations at the commission's discretion.
B. At least thirty days before any public hearing under this section, the commission shall cause notice of the hearing to be published in two newspapers, one of statewide circulation and another of general circulation in the county where the hearing is to be held. In addition, the commission shall mail notice of the hearing to any person who has previously requested notice of hearings in writing from the commission.
