Healthy Watersheds

From the upper snowcapped peaks down to the agricultural fields and bosque floodplains, maintaining and improving the health of New Mexico's watersheds requires collaboration between individuals and groups. Please join us for the second New Mexico Watershed Forum at the Albuquerque Hilton from September 28th-30th. Plenary sessions, workshops, and field trips over the course of three days will offer opportunities to examine and build upon the cooperative relationships that have led to successful watershed-based planning and restoration.

This statewide Forum aims to gather watershed professionals and group leaders, Tribe and Pueblo leaders, volunteers, contractors, soil and watershed conservation districts, students and faculty, and local, state, and federal agencies interested in improving the health of watersheds. All are welcome to attend and share their experiences.
