The Office of the State Engineer encourages everyone to practice smart water use to help stretch supplies during dry conditions. Every drop counts. 💧

🌾Middle Rio Grande Conservancy District (MRGCD) delivered about 35% of a normal supply 🌵Elephant Butte Reservoir is only 3% full, with lake levels the lowest they’ve been since the 1950s

As a result, this year: 💧Many farmers on tributaries to the Rio Grande (like the Rio Chama) have been curtailed since June, receiving limited water supplies 🚜Elephant Butte Irrigation District (EBID) farmers received just 6 in of water this irrigation season (vs. a full 3 ft)

2025 brought some of the lowest snowpack & precipitation on record. This has resulted in about 50% less water flowing into the Rio Grande from Colorado and drying of the river between Albuquerque and Elephant Butte Reservoir.
