URGENT - San Augustin Ranch LLC amended water app

San Augustin Ranch LLC has submitted an amended original application, the final legal notice for which is coming soon. The amended application expands the "affected counties" to essentially all in the Rio Grande Basin and each well would be drilled 3000' deep (over half a mile!) (original application was for wells 2000' deep).

It is recommended that you file a protest letter for this amended application even if you filed one last December. Your letter needs to be in the OSE office no later than September 15. For more info go to www.catroncounty.net/water/

Please forward this email to anyone you know who has in interest in water rights, water conservation, and public welfare as regards our precious water resources in New Mexico, and PLEASE send a protest letter to OSE for this amended application. Thank you!
