New Mexico § 73-1-2 - Lands included in district; two or more artesian basins in one district

§ 73-1-2. Lands included in district; two or more artesian basins in one district

Any artesian conservancy district organized pursuant to the provisions of this act

shall include all lands overlying any such artesian basin and any land outside of

the boundaries thereof upon which waters from such basin are being used, either for

private, public, commercial, domestic or irrigation purposes, or otherwise. Two or more such artesian basins or reservoirs may be embraced in the same conservancy

district, where the same are so closely related, geographically or otherwise, that

the waters therein can more surely and effectively be conserved by the unified control

of one district, and where the improvements contemplated will tend to conserve the

waters in each basin so included.
