Dear HCN,
The Pueblo of Santa Ana
sincerely appreciates the extensive coverage in the Nov. 19 issue
to highlight our efforts to restore the Rio Grande bosque and river
channel within our reservation lands. While we understand that the
purpose of the article was to highlight Pueblo efforts, we feel it
is important to acknowledge the significant role that the Bureau of
Reclamation’s Albuquerque Area Office and Socorro Field Division
played in the river restoration activities. This two-mile river
restoration effort involved years of extensive planning and
coordination between the Pueblo and the
Bureau.
We also want to point out that it was the
Bureau’s Socorro Field Division, not Santa Ana work crews, captured
in the aerial photograph on page 10. Thank you again for your
excellent coverage of the Pueblo’s and our federal partners’
restoration efforts.
