This was a presentation from the New Mexico Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources featuring Stacy Timmons, Rachel Hobbs, and Laila Sturgis and addressing project updates from the Aquifer Mapping effort for New Mexico, how these efforts tie to the Water Data Initiative, and the long-term goals to build a modern and complete aquifer characterization for New Mexico.
20 Argentine Fulbright Scholars evaluated and made recommendations for the Middle Rio Grande's and New Mexico's water future. Their insightful policy recommendations focused on sustainability, inclusion, equity, research, alliances, water governance reform, and public education and incentives. They characterized New Mexico’s water problems as community problems that require community-driven solutions through collective action.
