Redington NRCD

The Redington NRCD was organized on June 19, 1947. Its boundaries overlap four counties: Cochise, Pima, Pinal, and Graham. The District encompasses 31 miles of the San Pedro River Valley and is the District’s most defining feature. Redington NRCD also includes the Low San Pedro Watershed.

Land use in the Redington District is not restricted to traditional farming and ranching. At least one ranch in the district is actively managing mesquite forests along the valley bottom for lumber production and firewood. Several areas along the River have been populated with bee boxes. This has proven to be important for local agricultural operations and the general function of the various ecological processes in the area.

Recreation, hunting, and off-road use have increased within the District in the last 30 years due to the increased population pressure of nearby metropolitan areas, decreased access to state and federal lands in other districts, and the general increase in off-road vehicle recreation.
