Where and how New Mexico is going to get enough water to survive and thrive is an issue that’s here to stay! The New Mexico Desalination Association is continuing to step up to this challenge by offering the second of its New Water for New Mexico public information and discussion forums.

The New Water for New Mexico Forum will bring together water experts and interested parties to define and communicate the needs our state has for new water resources and to present ideas and solutions to effectively and economically access those resources.
