WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Jeff Bingaman today announced that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has awarded a $91,903 grant to help Ohkay Owingeh Pueblo continue a water pollution control program.

The funding awarded today will be used for water sampling to assess surface water quality on pueblo lands and to continue compiling data to determine if a more thorough watershed management program is needed to develop water quality standards.

"This grant will make it possible for Ohkay Owingeh Pueblo to help ensure that water quality needs are being met," Bingaman said.
