WORKSHOP INFORMATION:

The New Mexico Integrated Water Financing Plan was developed through a collaborative virtual workshop series including state, federal, and other partners for the following demonstration projects as examples of New Mexico water needs: (1) Accelerating small drinking water system regionalization; (2) Aquifer mapping and monitoring; and (3) Ribbons of Life: Upper Rio Grande Basin Riparian Conservation, Restoration, and Watershed Health Initiative. The workshop will provide an opportunity to discuss the demonstration projects as well as collaboration opportunities to move forward on meeting other New Mexico water needs. 

Although a detailed agenda and pre workshop materials will be sent in early November, the in-person workshop will include the following: 

  • Overview of the results of the New Mexico Integrated Water Financing Plan 
  • Discussion of lessons learned from collaboratively developing innovative financing concepts 
  • Opportunity for state, federal, tribal community, and stakeholder representatives to collaborate with both traditional and new financing partners  
  • Facilitated breakout groups to work on innovative financing of additional priorities in New Mexico’s water community
