San Juan Soil And Water Conservation District Watershed-Based Plan 2025-2031
This plan for the Middle San Juan River Watershed in San Juan County, New Mexico, aims to improve water quality and restore the river to an unimpaired condition by addressing E. coli and sedimentation impairments. The plan's objectives include characterizing existing watershed information, identifying data gaps, describing ongoing programs, and outlining project opportunities. It proposes a holistic approach with projects focusing on septic and wastewater management, agricultural best management practices, upland and riparian restoration, urban stormwater, and irrigation infrastructure improvements. The overall goal is to achieve a functional, sustainable, and resilient watershed, with milestones for water quality, land use, riparian health, and public education.
