Drought and Climate Change on Water Resources
The hearing will focus on two related subjects. First we'll hear about the serious drought conditions that are now affecting New Mexico. Despite receiving a little moisture over the past few days at least in some parts of the State, the majority of the State is experiencing a severe drought that has impacted irrigation and municipal and environmental water supplies.
The current Drought Monitor maps indicate that no part of New Mexico is without impacts. The southern one-third of the State is experiencing extreme drought conditions, having had little or no rainfall for several months.
The second panel of witnesses will focus on the impacts of climate change on water supplies and will highlight a report issued by the Bureau of Reclamation earlier this week in response to the SECURE Water Act requirement that Congress enacted in 2009.
