Suit against irrigation
district is dropped
Borderland Thursday, February 10, 2005 |
The El Paso Public Service Board voted
Wednesday to drop the lawsuit it filed in 2001 against the El Paso County
Water Improvement District No. 1.
The PSB, which oversees El Paso Water Utilities, accused the irrigation
district of forcing the city to pay the highest water rates in the state and
of refusing to sell billions of gallons of excess water that, in a normal
year, flows down canals and the Rio Grande into Hudspeth County.
