What is this Project?

Co-located at the Hondo Fire Station, the bulk water facility includes the acquisition of a parcel of land from the New Mexico Department of Transportation (NMDOT), environmental studies, site assessments, design, and construction of the facility. The project will enhance regional water access and delivery capacity, serving agricultural, emergency, and community water needs.  

Many County residents who are experiencing water quality or quantity issues cannot have the County or other utility system extended to them.  Bulk water stations allow them to buy water in bulk at economical rates, currently $0.01/gallon.   

This project will provide more convenient bulk water service to the eastern part of the County. 

What will 2026 Capital Outlay Request do?

Fully fund the construction of the project, allowing it to be completed in Calendar Year 2026.
