PAGE 4 REGIONAL COALITION OF LANL COMMUNITIES LOS ALAMOS os Alamos, “The Secret City,” maintains a worldwide reputation for scientific and technological development. Los Alamos is a place where discoveries Lare made, creating aha moments, and cultivating curiosity. Out of the race for developing the atomic bomb in the early 1940s, the Manhattan Project of WWII birthed the town and adjacent Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). Flourishing community life features small-town living with friendly neighbors, low crime, and an exceptional, nationally recognized school system. Cultural and recreational opportunities abound, with more than 100 miles of hiking, biking, equestrian trails, and local downhill or cross-country skiing options at Pajarito Mountain. The community hosts a variety of events with music and entertainment festivals year-round. Los Alamos is the gateway to three National Parks, including Bandelier National Monument, Valles Caldera National Preserve, and the new Manhattan Project National Historical Park, which includes the Bradbury Science Museum and the expanded Los Alamos History Museum campus.

This is one of many related papers that were included in the 2007 NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebook. Annual NMGS Fall Field Conference Guidebooks Every fall since 1950, the New Mexico Geological Society (NMGS) has held an annual Fall Field Conference that explores some region of New Mexico (or surrounding states). Always well attended, these conferences provide a guidebook to participants. Besides detailed road logs, the guidebooks contain many well written, edited, and peer-reviewed geoscience papers. These books have set the national standard for geologic guidebooks and are an essential geologic reference for anyone working in or around New Mexico. Free Downloads NMGS has decided to make peer-reviewed papers from our Fall Field Conference guidebooks available for free download. Non-members will have access to guidebook papers two years after publication. Members have access to all papers. This is in keeping with our mission of promoting interest, research, and cooperation regarding geology in New Mexico. However, guidebook sales represent a significant proportion of our operating budget. Therefore, only research papers are available for download. Road logs, mini-papers, maps, stratigraphic charts, and other selected content are available only in the printed guidebooks.

  • New Mexico's Tribal Collaboration
    1 New Mexico’s Tribal Collaboration Act: What are the Impacts of a Legislative Imperative for State And Tribal Relations?1 By Linda Moon Stumpff PhD Abstract: The 23 Tribes of New Mexico have a long history of intergovernmental relations beginning with inter-tribal relationships among diverse Tribes and extending to the periods of Spanish colonial rule, Mexican rule, and finally establishing the federal relationship with the United States. The 23 recognized Tribes constitute over 10% of the State’s population. Tribes are represented in both legislative and executive branches of New Mexico today in a continuously evolving relationship. Although the relationship continues to be strengthened through the self-determination and self-governance initiatives carried out by Tribes, it has also become politicized. This case explores the history of the development of tribal relationships with the State of New Mexico, the resulting impacts, and lessons about intergovernmental relationships. A Brief History This case explores the question of how state government-to-government relationships affect both tribal and state sovereignty and the conditions that impact the effectiveness of state-tribal institutional development in New Mexico. Many different models for state-tribal relations exist and more continue to emerge (Kaufmann, et. aI., Smith, 2018). In New Mexico formal state-tribal relations began in 1953 when the Commission on Indian Affairs and the Office of Indian Affairs were created by legislative statute. A major change occurred when Governor Richardson elevated the Director of the Office of Indian Affairs to the level of his Cabinet in 2003. This was the culmination of years of changing federal policy and the increasing importance of state-tribal relations.

Hughes, Pueblo Indian Water Rights: Charting the Unknown, 57 Nat. Resources J. 219 (2017). Available at: https://digitalrepository.unm.edu/nrj/vol57/iss1/8 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by the Law Journals at UNM Digital Repository.

For more information, please contact [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]. Richard W. Hughes PUEBLO INDIAN WATER RIGHTS: CHARTING THE UNKNOWN ABSTRACT This article examines the so-far-unsuccessful efforts to judicially define and quantify the water rights appurtenant to the core land holdings of the 19 New Mexico Pueblos, many of whose lands straddle the Rio Grande. It explains that the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals has squarely held that Pueblo water rights are governed by federal, not state law, and are prior to those of any non-Indian appropriator, but also that the Tenth Circuit acknowledged that it could not say how those rights should be characterized. Part I of the article examines the course of the cases that have sought to achieve this elusive goal. Of the first six cases, filed half a century ago, three ended in negotiated settlements and none of them has yielded a definitive ruling on the nature or measure of Pueblo rights. Of the three cases filed since then, only one is in active litigation on the Pueblo rights issue, but that case may finally lead to a substantive ruling.

  • Colonial New Mexico
    COLONIAL NEW MEXICO INTRODUCTION During the late evening hours of 15 July 1945, Enrico Fermi wandered among his fellow scientists at the Trinity Test Site soliciting bets. He wondered. Would the test bomb ignite the atmosphere? And, if so, would it destroy just New Mexico or destroy the world? A deafening roar, a brilliant orange ball of fire and a thunderous shockwave at 5:29:45 a.m. the next morning answered his question. In that same instant, the military future of New Mexico departed dramatically from its martial past. Very quickly, a territory and state that was often an outpost of empire and a battleground for Native Americans and Europeans, was becoming inextricably linked to a new ideological and imperial struggle being waged on a global scale. Despite that, two things remained constant. New Mexico would be just as it had been, dependant on a military presence for survival and stability. Secondly, those who would take part in modern conflict came from often diverse backgrounds. From the warrior traditions of the ancient Pueblo Indians to the significance of the state in the military-industrial complex of the atomic age, New Mexico's military heritage has been and continues to be defined by the contributions of peoples from a variety of cultures and backgrounds. For four centuries after the first Spanish expedition, New Mexicans fought each other in a prolonged struggle for control of the land, its resources and even its people before uniting together in the twentieth century against foreign powers. The legacy of these conflicts extends far beyond the fields of battle to an important and influential element in New Mexico's society - the veterans themselves.
