Albuquerque has been very worried about this for many years, check out their Water 2120 plan for more information: https://www.abcwua.org/uploads/files/Water%202120%20Approved%20Policy%20Document.pdf https://www.abcwua.org/uploads/files/Water%202120%20Approved... Is it enough? Probably not, but Albuquerque hosts more than half the population of the state, so if only they get their act together it'll still cover most of us. I think it's likely that well water will be mostly sufficient for most of the rural communities for a long time. I would hope that Las Cruces develops a similar plan, but Santa Fe's population is not that high and the cost of living there helps keep it down.
