2012 New Mexico Watershed Forum Applications Available
Planning Committee seeks ideas, local hosts
The New Mexico Watershed Forum is a biennial event that brings together watershed groups, non-governmental organizations, contractors, Tribes and Pueblos, soil and water conservation districts, and local, state, and federal agencies interested in watershed management and protection. The Forum provides opportunities for local leadership to team up and share successes, challenges, and innovations while networking and discussing watershed issues.
Events in 2008 and 2010 were held in Albuquerque, and featured projects within a short drive of the conference venue. Feedback from participants indicated a demand for greater involvement by watershed groups, and a desire to highlight watershed work in more of New Mexico. Accordingly, the sponsors are taking the Forum on the road in 2012! The Planning Committee is seeking ideas for local workshops on watershed management, planning, and restoration.
