Non-Indians seek way out of water rights settlement
Wednesday, March 24, 2004
A group of non-Indian water users in northern New Mexico is seeking a way out of a proposed settlement in a long-running tribal water rights case. The Pojoaque Basin Water Alliance says residents haven't been properly informed of the proposed deal that would require them to give up their water wells for a regional system. The group says 1,000 of 3,000 people have signed a petition against the deal. The long-running Aamodt suit, named for the first defendant, involves the water rights of the pueblos of Pojoaque, Tesuque, Nambé and San Ildefonso. The tribes would give up their right to assert priority over other users. Get the Story:
