Duties

The Purpose of the Board of Managers is to carry out the general supervision and operational management of the Subdistrict.  Specifically, the Board of Managers must administer a plan of water management to benefit the property within the Subdistrict.  The plan of water management must be designed to remedy injurious depletions to senior surface water rights from groundwater withdrawals from Subdistrict Wells and to conserve and stabilize the water supply for irrigation, domestic, municipal, industrial and other beneficial uses for those water users within the boundaries of the Subdistrict. The Board of Managers operate both separately and in conjunction with the Board of Directors of the Rio Grande Water Conservation District.  

Meetings

Regular meetings occur the second Tuesday of February and May and the first Tuesday of August and November.  Please see the homepage or calendar for specific dates, times, and locations.
