35°05.000'N 106°39.000'W ALBUQUERQUE 35°05.000’N 106°39.000’W [ 1 ] 35°04.459’N 106°38.989’W When we first embarked on this project, our goal was to create a book of images reflecting the many looks of Albuquerque, New Mexico. This collection was to be primarily a tool, providing visual information for location managers and producers seeking a city in which to shoot their films. With New Mexico’s wonderful tax incentive and loan programs, we felt this would be a helpful and far reaching tool to start that process – an armchair guide to Albuquerque that would inspire film professionals to book that flight and check us out. We gave the approach to this project considerable thought and instead of just procuring a group of great imagemakers we decided to look at the city cinematically, from one person’s point of view. Oh! what we discovered. Frankly, even we were surprised at the results. As a matter of fact, people who have lived in Albuquerque all of their lives are surprised at what we captured. So let your imagination take you through this wonderful Southwest city and don’t be surprised if you too discover the East Coast, the beautiful South, the arid desert Southwest, southern California, the Midwest, New England, the south of France, Tuscany , Spain, Morocco and many other places. The journey is lim- ited only by your imagination. Albuquerque? Yeah, Albuquerque!

Middle Rio Grande Microbial Source Tracking Executive Summary EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This Middle Rio Grande (MRG) Microbial Source Tracking Project was funded by the New Mexico Environmental Department, Albuquerque Metropolitan Arroyo Flood Control Authority, and Bernalillo County. The objective of this project was to identify specific sources of fecal coliform causing high levels of bacteria in the MRG. The three agencies recognized that this type of data was essential to provide water quality program managers and stakeholders the information necessary to target solutions for reducing fecal coliform concentrations/loadings within the surface waters of the study area. The study area lies within the MRG between Angostura Diversion Dam in southeastern Sandoval County to the Isleta Diversion Dam, at the northern border of Isleta Pueblo, a distance of approximately 42 river miles (Figure 2.1). To identify specific sources of fecal coliform by subwatershed, this project involved several steps: • Execution of a sanitary survey or reconnaissance tour of the watershed and a compilation of available data and literature to identify potential contributing sources of fecal bacteria to be considered.
