The Water Assembly is a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization
that was born in 1997. (Our Policies and Procedures
and Bylaws).
Grass-roots based, the Assembly has
always sought public participation in a variety of ways as well as sound
scientific analysis. The Assembly’s purpose is to assure effective
implementation of the Middle Rio Grande Regional Water Plan through an open,
inclusive, and participatory process so as to achieve the common interests of
the people and stakeholders of the region for a sustainable water future that
balances water use with renewable supply in accordance with the stated goals of
the Plan.
The Water Assembly’s role is to
encourage implementation of our plan so we can get a handle on the future. Our
1999 Water Budget revealed a deficit between the water we’re using and the
water coming into our region. Our Regional Water Plan documents this shortfall
and gives strategies to balance our Water Budget. Straight talk is necessary to
implement our plan — as is straight action.
