Good morning, this is your Santa Fe Local Frequency for Thursday, February 12th. Kick off your day with the latest buzz from our vibrant city, where local stories shape our everyday lives and fun adventures await just around the corner.
Statewide headlines hit close to home today as the New Mexico Environment Department secured a nearly 200 thousand dollar settlement from the Camino Real Regional Utility Authority for repeated drinking water violations since 2023, including arsenic exceedances and failures to notify customers about high pH levels. This cash goes straight to the states Water Conservation Fund, boosting water quality testing and training for systems like ours, ensuring cleaner taps for Santa Fe families while pushing for better oversight down south. Meanwhile, in the Roundhouse, the Clear Horizons Act took a hit yesterday, rejected by the Senate on a close vote amid worries it could crimp our booming oil and gas sector that fuels 35 percent of state revenue. Climate advocates like Senate President Pro Tem Mimi Stewart arent backing down, vowing to fight on for emission cuts to combat wildfires, asthma spikes in oil country, and ski slope woes, keeping the debate alive as Governor Lujan Grishams executive order holds the line for now.
Shifting to brighter skies, tonights lineup sparkles with community spirit. Head to CHOMP Food Hall on Cerrillos Road at 6 PM for Sip, Sense, and Sustain, where the Native Plant Society shares art, botanicals, and conservation tips over drinks, inspiring us all to nurture our high desert flora.
