Las Vegas NM Water Crisis Update

Las Vegas, New Mexico, is finally making progress after a devastating wildfire crippled its water system—now safe to drink, but still in need of a long-term fix. With $98 million from FEMA and another $100 million on deck, the city is building a state-of-the-art water treatment plant, though it won’t be ready for three years. In the meantime, they’re upgrading their current facility with a granular activated carbon filtration system and expert help from the state. Residents are frustrated it took so long, but the mayor insists the plan is solid and everyone’s aligned—this time, they’re building it right.
