Now the pueblos are insisting that since they have aboriginal water rights to the water in this valley that the non Indians should cap their wells and go onto a central water utility that receives its water from the Rio Grande rather than the aquafer that we are currently using - thereby giving the pueblos control of water for the development of more casinos/resorts and golf courses and selling water to the city/county of Santa Fe for development.
Our response is that we live in the desert and that we all have to share the water resources in a thoughtful and conserving way (no golf courses) and that the water should remain in the water shed and not treated as a commodity.
