Project Grant
Overview
Grant Description
The City of Gallup (CITY), located in McKinley County, New Mexico, will construct two new production wells for the Navajo Gallup Water Supply Project. The new wells will provide 325 acre-feet per year of drinking water for the city and the surrounding areas that it serves, increasing the water supply reliability for the region.
The city has no access to surface water supplies, and failing infrastructure and declining water quality pose a significant threat to public health and safety. A significant number of residents in the city's service area live below the federal poverty level and rely heavily on water hauling.
The city has experienced a variety of drought impacts including shortages in drinking water supplies, increased risks of wildfires, and other environmental concerns, most recently in 2018 through 2021. The development of new wells to ensure safe drinking water supplies is the number one priority in the Gallup Navajo-Gallup Water Supply Project Water Commons Drought Contingency Plan.
