New Mexico seeks curb on Pojoaque water use for golf resort
Attorney General Patricia Madrid filed in Albuquerque federal court seeking an injunction to stop Pojoaque Pueblo from irrigating a second 18 hole golf course and hotel plans, citing estimated diversions far above federally approved water rights and asking for metering and reporting of usage. The state alleges current use would reach about 358 acre feet while rights total about 201 acre feet. Negotiations have stalled and the case leaves open settlement options.

Tesuque Pueblo Demolishes San Diego Church Site
Tesuque Pueblo leveled the San Diego Catholic Church built in 1888 after a June fire left it unsafe. Tribal officials said rebuilding costs could reach 500000, with only 5000 raised so far from Camel Rock Casino revenues not to be used. Two men face a federal hearing November 5 in Albuquerque for allegedly starting the blaze.
