Join us for the next great presentation from State Engineer General Counsel Nat Chakeres about the Middle Rio Grande’s unrecognized water crisis. The Office of the State Engineer’s actions are needed to keep New Mexico out of another Texas lawsuit focused on the Middle Rio Grande, the river segment between the Los Alamos highway bridge and Elephant Butte. Don’t miss State Engineer General Counsel’s presentation, Carrots and Sticks for Achieving Rio Grande Compact Compliance, Part II.
New Mexico’s watersheds are in trouble. Fires, erosion, and climate change are damaging the forests, wetlands, and stream systems we depend on to store water and protect communities. Restoring these landscapes is essential to securing a resilient water future—but it will take bold investment, better coordination, and strong local support.
