The theme for the community water events planned by the Communities for Clean Water is “Weaving Our Río Grande Communities Together.”
Three public education programs will be in Santa Fe and Española on Thursday and in Española on Friday. The programs are free and open to the public.
On Thursday, 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., a Community Water Forum will be conducted at the Santa Fe Community Convention Center, located at 201 Marcy Street. Its main topic will be the Buckman Projects and Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL).
International and local experts will make presentations to address public concerns about the Buckman wells and the Direct Diversion Project, which currently provides about 60 percent of the drinking water for those in Santa Fe County.
Thursday from 6 to 8 p.m., a second program called “Runoff, Risk and Community Empowerment – Your Role in Cleanup at LANL” will begin at the Salazar Center for the Arts at Northern New Mexico College in Española.
Santa Clara Pueblo Forestry Department representatives will speak about how the Las Conchas fire in the Pueblo watershed has created a situation where the recent storms have resulted in levels of water flowing through the Pueblo to the Río Grande.
