NOT Rio Rancho or the Albuquerque area.<br /><br />... one possible defense is an interbasin transfers prohibition ... and keep an eye on Rep. Nate Gentry (APR supporter).<br /><br />http://adventuresofagreenhorn.blogspot.com/2013/05/pt3-augustin-plains-ranch-interstate.htmlErik Hawkeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01959398077563646635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7137511183518709604.post-45187013136897165172013-04-10T04:52:41.558-06:002013-04-10T04:52:41.558-06:00pt2 san augustin plains (endangered cultural prope...pt2 san augustin plains (endangered cultural property)<br />http://adventuresofagreenhorn.blogspot.com/2013/04/pt2-san-augustin-plains-endangered.htmlErik Hawkeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01959398077563646635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7137511183518709604.post-78307065571586828962012-12-17T07:25:29.890-07:002012-12-17T07:25:29.890-07:00http://www.dchieftain.com/author/eosterreich
i wa...http://www.dchieftain.com/author/eosterreich<br /><br />i was the one who described public-private partnerships as fascism in the article above.<br /><br />Public-Private Partnerships – when private industry provides public services for profit. The original taxes for the services remain in place, but a duplicative “service for FEE” structure is added. It is FASCISM, and it should NOT be considered as a solution to the State’s budget woes. It promotes monopolies and destroys small business. If the stakeholder is not a shareholder, he has no voice.<br /><br />https://sites.google.com/site/erikhawkes/Home/ppp<br /><br />Augustin Plains Ranch (public-private partnership)<br /><br />i believe the real reason for the denied application is that this project is structured as a public-private partnership and the laws necessary to make the project legal and viable are still being written ... water is publicly owned ... and to grant the right to 54,000 acre feet of water per year to one ranch owner so that he can then pump it to the albuquerque area and sell it at a profit requires some fancy language ... (every other rancher is entitled to 3 acre feet per year) ... (one acre foot ~ 326,000 gallons).<br /><br />http://adventuresofagreenhorn.blogspot.com/2012/12/augustin-plains-ranch-public-private.html<br /><br />i encourage you to follow the link above and read the entire post.Erik Hawkeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01959398077563646635noreply@blogger.com
