Summary

Sunland Park just landed a $350,000 grant from the North American Development Bank to tackle a critical water crisis—stormwater and wastewater from Ciudad Juárez are contaminating local waterways. The city must chip in 10% ($35,000) to fund a detailed engineering and hydrologic study aimed at mapping pollution sources, protecting public health, and safeguarding the Rio Grande watershed. This isn’t about construction yet—it’s about laying the groundwork with data, models, and cross-border collaboration involving the EPA, IBWC, and local governments. The goal? A clear plan, timeline, and cost estimates to eventually fix drainage, reduce flooding, and secure future funding—all while city maintenance continues uninterrupted.
