Winter hours: Entranosa's winter office hours are 8:30 am to 4:00 pm Monday to Friday.  Winter hours are October 1 to March 31.

Survey from Office of State Engineer: Every three years the State of New Mexico Environment Department Water Protection Division completes a Sanitary Survey. Over a two-day period a compliance officer inspects all facilities and records. The Inspector found six deficiencies; three non-operational tank level targets (Entranosa monitors tank levels electronically with sensors inside the tank that provides real-time data); two tanks with small trees too close to the tank and a well that appeared to not have a raw water sampling port, which was wrongly reported.  A corrected action plan was written and submitted. The only items remaining are the tank level targets, which will be repaired in October when divers return to finish cleaning tanks and install new target cables. For the full report, click here.

Entranosa recently received the test results for Polyflourinated Substances or PFAS. The very expensive process yeilded some good news for members: There were no detectable levels of PFAS in all eight of the source wells in the Entranosa system. You can read the report here.

Entranosa Water has received the 2023 Annual Drinking Water Report or the annual Consumer Confidence Report, which documents the quality of Entranosa's water. 2023 is the most recent year this report is available. (The 2024 report will be released in 2025.) This illustrated, six-page report is important reading for those who are concerned about the quality and safety of their drinking water. It is also available on the "All Forms & Reports" tab on this website. Click here to read the 2023 CCR.
