SF New Mexican:

Acequia systems might be damaged by released water.  Abiquiu Reservoir sits above the town, a few hundred feet above.  Since it’s been so dry, apparently folks have forgotten what it’s like to have an abundance of water ... so irrigation and building in the area has echoed the dry conditions.  Now the Army Corps of Engineers needs to release water from the Reservoir, damage may occur.  The municipality should have kept a closer watch on water use and construction, methinks.
