Summary: | This study involved examining the history of the Salt River Project and the change patterns in this institution during its history. It is the belief of the people of Arizona that they owe much to the Salt River Project for their present prosperity. Indeed, this organization was established at the beginning of the century in order to provide irrigation water to the farmers of certain areas. The result was very bright. The agricultural output has increased rapidly and the area in which the Salt River Project operates became very prosperous. It is the purpose of this thesis to examine the relationship pattern between the organization and its environment. The Salt River Project was established for irrigation purposes. However, the society maintained its progress and turned into a small metropolis. This new phase of the society required power as well as water. Then, the Salt River Project emphasized power and power became primary because of the needs for their progress. This study tried to cover and explain the change of processes in the Project during its 66 years history. |
