| Impact Report | 2010 SITUATION The New Mexico Livestock producers host quarterly meetings throughout the state each year. In 2010 they selected Cuba in Sandoval County. Agent was asked to send out notices and agenda for meeting. Approximately 60 producers and others attended. One topic of concern was the designation of Quality Water Initiative by State Environmental Department. Many ranchers and Acequia members are opposed to this legislation. The Acequia Group came prepared and gave a $250 donation to assist in cost involved. Later in the month the Rio Puerco Livestock Association sent in a check for $1,000.00 towards the cause. During the legislative session, the department of Environment got the OK to proceed with their plans to monitor streams/waters on forest service land. Output was the cattle growers were very impressed with the attendance at the meeting and the money contributions they received. They are discussing as to how soon they can get back to Cuba, NM for one of their meetings. |
