What is the Coast Guard doing in Arizona?

The U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary is the uniformed civilian component of the United States Coast Guard. Created by an Act of Congress in 1939, the Auxiliary directly supports the Coast Guard in all missions, except military and direct law enforcement actions. The Coast Guard Auxiliary is an integral part of the United States Coast Guard. In the state of Arizona, members of Division 10 patrol Lakes Saguaro, Canyon, Roosevelt, Pleasant, Bartlett, and Powell.  It also assists, from time-to-time, Division 9 with duty on Lakes Mead, Mohave, Havasu and the Colorado River
