I usually write about things I know nothing about in 'Burque Babble, but today will only ask about something I know nothing about: water rights. For reasons only marginally fathomable to me, I am suddenly interested in this topic. In particular, I'd like to read more about this Bill Turner/Middle Rio Grande Conservancy District (MRGCD) brouhaha.
Strangely, this controversy I know nothing about snarkily makes its way to the MRGCD website itself with a posting disingenuously entitled "You Decide". Sounds like a really messy situation, the kind I get real politiporn arousal from.
Anybody got some lascivious details?
Oh yeah, I'd also like some more boring sources to explore on the general issue of water rights in NM, blah, blah, blah.

Scot - hit the "feedback" link and check the author's name. Sound familiar?
That is SO great! Thanks anonymous...it took a minute or two, but solving the riddle was the highlight of my day. Oh, the nexus of journalism, government and citizen muckracking! Now I'm more into the issue than ever.
btw...I'm still looking for more info on the more mundane, less people-stabbing-each-other-with-long-knives aspect of the issue.
Scott with the two T's:
Thanks for all the info and leading me to hours of exploration on the subject. Thanks, I think...the complexity has been a big hangup for me getting to know this issue beyond the simple turning of our acqequia wheel at the ditch.
That and the depressing aspects...but onward, I guess. Why do I get the feeling I'll need a frequent hot, cleansing shower when I read about the "Water Assembly"?
Hi,
I'm curious about this remark -
Why do I get the feeling I'll need a frequent hot, cleansing shower when I read about the "Water Assembly"?
What do you mean?
