How much water is available in underground aquifers in NM? We don’t know! State agencies do not know the full extent of groundwater quantity and quality, and they should. Half of our municipal uses (including
drinking water) and significant proportions of agricultural and other business uses are dependent upon groundwater aquifers. It is dangerous not to know how fast we are depleting them.

tonight’s Zoom meeting of the New Mexico Water Advocates, 6:30-8pm. Please register to attend at:
