Harvey Jones Channel
The Harvey Jones Bioswale is a green stormwater infrastructure project implemented as a collaboration between TNC (The Nature Conservancy), SSCAFCA (Southern Sandoval County Arroyo Flood Control Authority), AMAFCA (Albuquerque Metro Arroyo Flood Control Authority ), MRGCD (Middle Rio Grande Conservation District), the Village of Corrales, the City of Rio Rancho, AMREP, the Ancestral Lands Program of Conservation Legacy, and the US Army Corps of Engineers.
Santa Fe River Pond Leveler Installation
In partnership with the Defenders of Wildlife and Santa Fe County, we installed a pond leveling device (also called a Beaver Deceiver) along the Santa Fe River, just west of the Santa Fe Airport to mitigate flooding of the road without displacing local beavers living in the same area.
