Rio Rancho Lifts Boil Advisory After Pressure Restored
The City of Rio Rancho ended a boil water advisory for part of western Rio Rancho after five days as Well 14 pressure rose above 20 psi by linking to Well 8. Officials caution a full repair may take weeks while Well 13 is redrilled, with the pump failure still unexplained. A Arbor Day tree-planting event at Haynes Park will occur Friday from 3 to 4 30 p m with seedlings and educational talks from EMNRD and city staff. A free business forum at City Hall on March 19 from 10 a m to noon is hosted by multiple groups to help start and grow Rio Rancho ventures.
