The Malpai Borderlands Group has been involved in a number of efforts aimed at improving the quality of our lands over the last ten years. We have worked hard to develop partnerships with government agencies and scientists and experts who lead their respective fields in the research of ecosystem and land management.

We have established a technical and cost-share assistance program to help landowners put in place needed conservation projects and implement sound management practices. The Natural Resources Conservation Service and the Forest Service continue to support positions within their agencies dedicated to assisting us in these endeavors.

In place for three years now is our watershed restoration program that has been responsible for the construction of over 3,000 hand built water harvesting structures within gullies and draws to slow down runoff, capturing sediment, establishing vegetation, and thus controlling erosion. So far, nearly 15 miles of watercourses have been treated using native materials, and we've only just begun!
