Santa Fe County seeks Rio Grande water rights for growth
Santa Fe County aims to buy up to 161 acre feet of water rights north of Truth or Consequences to move water to the capital area. The $675,000 deal with Stone Canyon LLC hinges on state approval of the transfer and would raise slightly if approvals lag. The county commission meets February 20 to discuss the plan amid broader efforts to secure 3,700 acre feet annually within 40 years and to develop a Rio Grande diversion near a west Santa Fe well field.
