In 1967, the Merced de Abiquiu (Grant) installed a water collection gallery and water line on national forest system lands in order to provide water for livestock. This facility is past its designed life and the proposal is to replace it.
Location
The project is located south of the Merced de Abiquiu, running from the grant boundary approximately 1.5 miles to Vallecitos Creek.
