Site work and new construction of a water / sewer project in McIntosh, New Mexico. Design plans call for the construction of a water / sewer project; and for site work for a water / sewer project.

The project entails the acquisition of land and water rights, plan design and construct for a 510,000 drinking water storage tank and enough drinking water distribution system to provide service to a 35 square mile area in community of McIntosh located along NM 41 between Moriarty and Estancia. Water rights may be leased from the owner entities, or additional water rights may be purchased from existing water rights holders within the basin. Through meetings with local OSE water rights staff and contact will local water rights owners, we have verified water rights are available and the permit process has been reviewed with OSE staff. A drinking water well will be developed, along with chlorination system, power to the site, storage facility (510,000-gallon tank) and access improvements to feed the distribution system.
