SOIL & WATER CONSERVATION DIST. TRAINING

SB 86 allocates $625,000 from the state general fund to the Department of Finance and Administration for training and outreach services supporting New Mexico's soil and water conservation districts statewide. The funding, intended for fiscal year 2026, would cover contracted services to help these local districts manage land and water resources. The bill was postponed indefinitely on June 3, 2025, meaning it has not advanced to become law. This is a procedural funding measure, not a policy change affecting specific groups beyond the conservation districts receiving the services.
