Project area is approximately 15 acres located in the town of Bernalillo in Sandoval County, New Mexico. Currently the lot is vacant and is in the process of being acquired for development. Plans for the area include the construction of apartment homes on the three parcels located with the project area. Based on aerial imagery, it appears that the lots have been roughly graded in the past and terraced to accommodate housing. Currently, the project is in the early stages of design and construction details have yet to become available.
Restore a 600-foot reach of flood impacted channel and associated road crossing. This is a project scoping to determine if there are any species of concern in the area. The project has not been designed yet but may include channel shaping, installation of erosion control structures such as rock vanes and root wads and removing accumulated sediment off the flood plain.
Environmental Due Diligence prior to commercial development. Construction estimated to start in 2026. Possibility of two commercial developments at the site.
The scope of the project is to mitigate flooding and streambank erosion at the NM-12 Apache Creek bridge crossing. The project will excavate accumulated sediment from the floodplain and spread that sediment into a berm along the edge of the adjacent private property to help contain flood flows within the floodplain and protect private property and the highway. Also, a gallery of wire mesh sediment fences will be installed along the streambank to help stabilize and rebuild the eroding bank, while encouraging the stream channel to return to its historic, more westerly course, thereby achieving a straighter approach to the bridge opening.

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) proposes to rescind the Conservation and Landscape Health Rule that was finalized in May, 2024. This is being done to allow for multiple uses and address issues related to the legality of BLM permitting withdrawals without following statutorily driven procedures.

Our client proposes to construct a 180-foot tall self-support telecommunications tower with associated ground equipment within a 75-foot by 75-foot proposed compound lease area. A proposed 20-foot-wide access and utility easement will extend approximately 190 feet west from the lease area towards State Highway 252. An 8-foot utility easement will extend north toward the 20-foot easement on the southwest corner of the lease area. An 8-foot utility easement will extend south from the access easement approximately 40 feet. The project is in the vicinity of agriculture and residential land.
The Ghost Ranch conservation easement represents a unique opportunity to permanently protect approximately 4,225 acres of agricultural, natural habitat and biological, scenic open space, source water and watershed, historic and cultural, outdoor and recreation conservation values in Rio Arriba County, New Mexico. The NHCA Ghost Ranch project will protect a critical inholding surrounded by two National Forests and Abiquiú Lake by restricting development on all of Ghost Ranch's waterfront and shortgrass prairie habitat. This initial phase of a NHCA conservation easement as proposed will be leveraged by future the future conservation of roughly 5,700 acres as conservation easements, and eventually transferring 13,500 acres to the Santa Fe and Carson National Forests and Bureau of Reclamation's Abiquiú Lake, to completely and permanently protect the 20,000-acre Ghost Ranch.
Installation of a fiber optic system consisting of aerial lines strung on existing utility poles and buried lines. Buried lines will be trenched at a depth of 36". The project will be placed within a 10-foot-wide ROW. Construction is expected 4th quarter 2025 or 1st quarter 2026.
This is a preliminary investigation for the Lynch to Medanos 115kV project. This would be a new transmission line primarily on BLM lands within the Carlsbad Field Office area. The Project consists of approximately 19 miles of new 115-kV transmission line between the Lynch Substation in Lea County, New Mexico, and the Medanos Substation in Eddy County, New Mexico. The transmission line will be constructed using monopole steel structures with concrete foundations. No additional information is available at this time.
