Join us for an important discussion about the proposed water rights transfer by Niagara, PNM, and Village of Los Lunas. Teresa Smith de Cherif of Valencia Soil & Water Conservation Board and Kathy McCord of Valencia Water Watchers will help us understand how this proposed transfer goes against New Mexico water law, doesn’t conserve water, and violates the public welfare. This application is about yet another corporation putting profit and greed above the good of the land, water, and people of New Mexico.
The oil and gas industry, enabled by our Governor and New Mexico regulatory agencies, is making a significant political push for the treatment and reuse of fracking wastewater. Unfortunately, their campaign relies more on disinformation than on scientific facts.
