Bill > SB339

This bill appropriates $12 million from New Mexico's general fund to the Department of Environment specifically for water infrastructure improvements in Curry County. The funds are designated to be spent over three fiscal years (2026-2028) and can be used to plan, design, construct, replace, and improve water lines in the county. If any money remains unspent or uncommitted by the end of fiscal year 2028, those funds will automatically be returned to the state's general fund. This targeted appropriation appears aimed at addressing water infrastructure needs in Curry County, which likely requires upgrades or expansion of its existing water delivery systems to support local communities and potentially improve water service reliability or quality.
