ELDORADO AREA WATER & SANITATION DISTRICT
2 North Chamisa Drive, Santa Fe, New Mexico 87508-9483
IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO OUR CUSTOMERS
Stage 1 Water Restrictions Effective May 20, 2022: As was the case this time last year, the daily forecast over the last two months has been dry and windy with the prospect of significant precipitation seemingly nowhere in sight following several consecutive years of poor snow pack and rain. With no chance of being able to operate our Galisteo Well #9 this summer, the District has concluded that the only prudent course of action is to implement EAWSD Stage 1 Water Restrictions effective Friday, May 20, 2022.
Details concerning water restrictions can be found at the following link for WRAMP. Information has been posted at ECIA and at the Agora. Additionally, you'll find detailed information in May's issue of Water Notes. Thank you for your cooperation!
