This bill proposes the establishment of the Office of Resiliency within the governor's office, which will be responsible for addressing climate change threats to Arizona's water and natural resources. The governor will appoint a director for this office, who will serve at the governor's discretion and be eligible for compensation. The office will advise the governor on various policies related to water, land use, transportation, and energy, and will develop a resiliency plan to protect the state's human population and economic systems from climate change risks.

Additionally, the bill mandates that state agencies identify and assess potential risks to various systems, including water resources, temperature-sensitive populations, energy systems, transportation systems, vital infrastructure, and natural lands. The bill also includes the repeal of Title 49, Chapter 1, Article 6 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, indicating a significant update to current environmental statutes.
