Governor’s Report

Ma gu wam,

Irrigation Infrastructure Act

In 2009, the Rio Grande Pueblo Irrigation

Infrastructure Improvement Project was

authorized by Section 9106 of P.L. 111-11,

the Omnibus Public Land Management

Act (commonly referred as the “Irrigation

Infrastructure Act”. According to the

US Bureau of Reclamation website,

https://www.usbr.gov/uc/albuq/progact/

NMPueblos/index.html:

“Congress directed Reclamation to

conduct a study and develop a list

of recommended projects to repair,

rehabilitate, or reconstruct irrigation and

drainage facilities for the New Mexico

Rio Grande Pueblos, in consultation

with the Pueblos and in coordination

with the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Natural

Resources Conservation Service, and the

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

“The intended benefits of the project

are: water conservation, addressing

potential water supply conflicts in the

Rio Grande Basin through extending

available water supplies and enhanced

water management, increased agricultural

productivity, economic benefits, safer

facilities, and preservation of the culture of

Indian Pueblos in New Mexico...”

While the Act was passed by Congress

in 2009, very little funding has been

appropriated. Since 2009, several years

of patchwork funding to the various Rio

Grande Pueblos and Tribes has resulted

in surveying and other planning-level

data to define the irrigation infrastructure

projects and cost estimates needed to

pursue construction funding under the Act.

In July of 2017 a draft report consolidating

this preliminary data was finally completed

for all Rio Grande Pueblos and Tribes,

including Isleta Pueblo. On August 9, 2017,

Isleta Pueblo provided input and comments

on the draft report to the US Bureau of

Reclamation. It is expected that internal

US Department of Interior reviews will

take on the order of three months before

the final report is routed to the applicable

Congressional committees in late 2017.

Completion of this preliminary report is a

vital first step in pursuing federal funding

for irrigation infrastructure construction

activities under this Act. To obtain funding,

however, more work and diligence by

the Pueblos and Tribes of New Mexico is

needed. The leadership of each Pueblo

and Tribe will have to work with various

delegations to continuously push and lobby

for this funding in the years to come.

If Isleta Pueblo community members are

interested in reviewing the draft report, and

sections applicable to Isleta Pueblo, please

drop by the Water Resources Department

located at the Governor’s office.

I am pleased to report that, on Saturday,

August 19, 2017 Archbishop Wester

blessed the newly constructed CCD

building along with church members. The

building is near completion, however, a

portion of the building was utilized for the

August 28th feast day. We hope to have

a formal opening sometime soon. Also, on

August 19, 2017 we celebrated the Native

American Ministry mass at the Cathedral

Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi in Santa

Fe. In attendance were tribal leaders from

various pueblos along with Lt. Governor

Max Zuni, Lt. Governor Andrew Teller,

former Governor Paul Torres and Lt.

Governor Isidor Abeita. It was a beautiful

celebration.

Lujan. It takes a great deal of preparation

for this event added by the support and

dedication of family and friends. Thank

you to all!

In anticipation of our feast days, we are all

looking forward to celebrating our customs

and traditions. Let us give thanks to our

Great Spirits for their blessings. I would

like to thank the sponsors for the August

28th Feast Day – Mr. & Mrs. Jose Keryte,

Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Jiron, Mr. & Mrs.

Michael Sarracino and Mr. & Mrs. Charles

I want to take this moment to give

condolences to the families who have

recently lost their loved ones. I wish you

strength to endure your loss.

The September 3rd and 4th Feast days

are sponsored by the families of Lupita

Chewiwi and Pauline Acoya. Thank you all

for your participation. We hope you enjoy

the day with friends and family.

We have a great event scheduled for Sunday,

September 17th at the Isleta Lakes and RV

Area – Family Fun Day from 11:00am to

7:00pm. There will be food, games, bouncy

houses and prize drawings. Passes will be

provided to each family. Look for posters

and additional information – soon!!

May the Great Spirit always guide you and

keep you and your families safe.

Thank you, Governor Robert Benavides

Constitutional Amendment Survey Results

The Constitutional Amendment Survey was handed out during the Per Capita

Distribution on Saturday, August 5. Results will be used by tribal council during its

talks to change the election process. A total of 915 tribal members participated in the

survey and 80 people submitted comments.

An overwhelming majority of participants are in favor of establishing an election

board (Question #4) and using voting machines during tribal elections (Question #5).

The tribal council is hoping to get more tribal members to take part in the election

process by making it easier to register to vote, making voter registration year-round

and introducing absentee voting.

As the tribal council moves forward, it will hold community meetings and publish

additional articles in the newsletter.

Question #1 – Are you in favor of changing the registration and tribal

election dates?

Yes – 429 (47%)

No - 470 (51%)

Blank – 16

Question #2 – Are you in favor of Absentee Voting?

Optometry Department

Change to Optical Store Hours

Due to the increased volume of patients getting glasses

in the eye clinic, our hours for frame selection, glasses

orders, adjustments, and repairs will change starting

Monday July 3, 2017.

Below are the specific changes:

1. Patients will be able to take care of their optical/

glasses needs Monday-Friday between the hours of

1:00pm to 4:00pm only.

2. Patients will no longer be able to walk back to the

optometry office and will be required to check in at the

front desk.

3. The afternoon store hours are on a first come first

serve basis and is considered a walk-in clinic.

This change will allow the optometry staff to better serve

patients while allowing the optometrist full time attention to

provide comprehensive eye exams. We will accept the first

EIGHT patients who check in.

We thank you for your patience. Feel free to contact us

with any questions or concerns at (505) 869-4080. Thank

you for letting us take care of your vision and eye health.

WIC NOTES

Cavity Keep Away

Dental health is important for everyone, including

pregnant women and infants.

Did you know you can catch a cavity?

Cavities are made by germs in our mouth that feed

on the sugar we eat.

The germs can pass from person to person through spit.

Keep the mouth germs away and you’ll keep the cavities away!

Here are a few ideas to keep those cavity causing germs away.

√ Visit your dentist during pregnancy. Dental treatment is safe.

√ Wipe baby’s gums twice a day, in the morning and right before

bed.

√ Clean pacifier and bottle with soap and water, not spit.

√ Give only water in the bottle at bedtime.

√ First tooth-> baby gets her own toothbrush.

√ Only use a dab (the size of a grain of rice) of fluoride toothpaste

every time you brush your baby’s teeth.

√ Take baby to dentist before his first birthday.

√ Each family member uses his or her own toothbrush, spoon, fork

and cup.

√ Choose gum or mints that have Xylitol (Zy-lih-tall) in them.

√ Health foods help keep cavities away.

PUEBLO OF ISLETA

PUBLIC SERVICES DEPARTMENT

UTILITIES DIVISION

LEAD AND COPPER SAMPLING

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) requires testing for

Lead and Copper in drinking water on a scheduled basis. The

Eastside and Subdivision water systems have been scheduled

for testing in 2017. The sampling cannot take place without the

cooperation of the residents in the area as they are the ones that

collect the water sample. The Pueblo of Isleta appreciates the

homeowners’ assistance in obtaining these samples.

The Pueblo is required to submit a total of 10 samples for the

Eastside water system and 10 samples for the Subdivision water

system. The sampling sites are selected based on the homes

plumbing system : When it was installed, the type of piping used

and if lead solder was utilized. EPA breaks down the various

plumbing systems by “tiers”.

Tier 1 samples are from single family homes that have copper

piping with a lead based solder used to connect the pipes together,

installed after 1982 but before the Lead based solder was banned

in 1986; and/or served by a lead service line (galvanized).

Tier 2 locations are the same as Tier 1, except multi-family

dwellings or buildings may be included in the sampling and not

just single family residences.

Tier 3 sites are single family structures with copper pipes having

lead solder, installed before 1983.

If you own a home constructed after 1987 you should not be

concerned about lead leaching into your drinking water supply due

to the materials used in the plumbing system, which is why EPA

does not recommend using your home as a sampling site.

A total of 10 samples from each water system will be sent to

Houston, Texas for analysis of the water. The EPA laboratory

reports the results to the Pueblo of Isleta and each residence that

had a water sample submitted should receive information on their

water sample results.

The Utilities Division of the Public Services Department is

currently updating all the Lead and Copper sampling plans for the

Pueblo of Isleta. Both Eastside and Subdivision water systems

sampling plans should be completed this year. Lead and Copper

sampling plan updates for the Los Charcos and Westside water

systems are also underway.

If your home meets the above criteria for a sampling site and you

are interested in having your water tested for Lead and Copper as

a part of this EPA program, please contact Mr. Edwin Jaramillo at

505-869-9782.

TR 82 Water Project Update

October 2017 is the much anticipated start date for the construction

of a new 6” water main to be installed along TR 82 from TR 78 to

TR 84.

The Pueblo of Isleta in-house “force account” crew consisting of

Phillip Jiron, Brian Jaramillo and Rafael Anchondo will be the

construction team completing the work, with the help of POI utility

workers.

The work will consist of a new 6” water main, fire hydrants, valves

and service lines to each residence along the roadway.

Detours and road closures are going to be necessary to complete

the work during the project. TR 82 is a very narrow road in places

and it is going to take the cooperation of area residents to make

this project work.

The engineering for the project was done by Indian Health Services

(IHS) and they will oversee the construction phase as well.

Village Sewer Design Survey Underway

“Village Sewer Line Improvement Project”

The Public Services Department – Utilities Division has been

funded through the State of New Mexico to hire an engineer to

design the Village Sewer Line Improvement Project. The project

area includes the homes within the Village Proper and extends as

far south to the Rec Center/Lagoons and west to NM 314. This

project also includes planned sewer expansion to approximately 16

additional homes that are not currently on the public wastewater

system.

Huitt-Zollar Survey crews are working in the Village area of the

Pueblo of Isleta and will be locating sewer mains, manholes, sewer

service lines (from your home to the main line) and clean-outs.

The survey crews need to locate the clean-out caps that are on

your property as a part of this project. If you know where your

clean-outs are, if you have more than one sewer service line and

additional sets of clean-outs, please let the surveyors know this

information.

It is important for the survey crews to locate ALL the clean-outs,

service lines, main lines and manholes all through the Village and

surrounding area to help in the design of an efficient replacement

sewer system for the Pueblo.

If you know where your clean-outs are, or if know you do not

have any clean-outs, please let the survey crews know this vital

information.

Marking your clean-outs with paint or a wooden

stake would be beneficial as well. If you know you have more than

one sewer service, please mark both of the lines/clean-outs for the

surveyors. If there are more than one set of clean-outs due to the

distance from your residence to the sewer main line, mark these

as well. Any information you can share with the surveyors would

be welcome!

This is the very beginning of the design work being done for the

Pueblo of Isleta. The goal is to replace the existing old clay sewer

main piping with new pipes, replace service lines from the main

sewer line to each residence, and replace or add new manholes as

needed.

Thank you all for your cooperation during this surveying project.

If you have any questions, please contact

Transit Services Coming to the Pueblo of Isleta

The Pueblo of Isleta and the Rio Metro Regional Transit District are pleased

to announce two new transit services coming to the Pueblo in December. A

new weekday bus route will connect the Pueblo of Isleta and Valencia County

communities to Downtown Albuquerque, providing three northbound and three

southbound trips during times that the Rail Runner does not operate mid-day.

On the Pueblo of Isleta, the bus route will stop at the Rail Runner Station and a

proposed stop near the Rio Grande bridge on NM 147.

Rio Metro, again in partnership with the Pueblo of Isleta, will also be bringing its

“Dial-a-Ride” service to the Pueblo. This service will operate on weekdays from

approximately 9:00am-2:00pm and provide trips to and from destinations within

the Pueblo. To use the Dial-a-Ride service, residents will be required to call Rio

Metro dispatch and schedule their trip in advance. An accessible van will then arrive on the date/time of their reservation and

take them to their destination.

More information about both services will be provided in October and November as details are finalized. Look for future updates

in this newsletter, flyers posted at various locations on the Pueblo including their website and social media, and on Rio Metro’s

Events” by Daniel Handler. This was a 4

week program with book club meetings

every Tuesday and Thursday. Kyle had

a total of 5 participants who were able to

take home a tablet, which the book was

downloaded onto. Then they compared and

contrast the books to the Netflix series.

Thank you to all who participated!

September 2017

Christino hosted a Solar Eclipse program

that took place on August 16th through

August 21st. On August 16th participants

filmed their version of the man on the moon.

The following day participants made their

own rockets with matches, foil and a skewer.

Most of the rockets worked while others did

not. On August 18th students made moon

sand out of flour and baby oil which they

got to play with. On Saturday August 19th

they made galaxy slime and made pinhole

viewers. August 21st was the day of the

eclipse. All participants got solar eclipse

glasses to view this historic event. We also

had the viewing of the eclipse displayed on

our TV as seen from NASA which everyone

enjoyed. Thank you to all who participated

and were able to enjoy this event with us.

Family Appreciation Day

You’re invited to join Isleta Resort & Casino for

a large Family Appreciation Day at the Isleta

Lakes Music Park. The event, scheduled for

September 17th, takes place from 11:00 a.m.

until 7:00 p.m. Pueblo of Isleta tribal members

are invited to attend with their immediate family.

Four wristbands will be issued per family. Every

participant must have a wristband, which may be

picked up at the Isleta Governor’s Office. Pickup

begins September 5 – September 15th, during

the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. The office

is located at 117 A Tribal Road 40. For any

questions or concerns, please call (505) 869-3111.

Shuttle service is also available for easy access,

taking place at the back parking lot of the Isleta

Fun Connection.

The event is only open for Isleta community

members, as well as Resort employees, celebrating

the tremendous amount of support from the

Pueblo of Isleta and Resort employees. The event

falls in the same week as the Resort celebrates 31

years of successful business.

The Resort & Casino’s 31st birthday comes

amid a $40 million renovation, expected to last

18-24 months. The work began in March with

closure of the Resort’s main entrance. The front

doors are expected to reopen in late September.

“We want to publicly thank all of our employees

for their extra hard work and assisting during the

time when our main entrance was closed. That

was a crucial component of the renovation, and

our employees did a fantastic job,” said Isleta

Resort & Casino CEO Harold Baugus.

The next steps in the renovation include closing

the Bingo Showroom entrance, so construction on

that area may begin.

Johnson O’Malley (JOM)

Welcome back to another school year! I

hope students enjoyed their summer and

are relaxed, recharged and ready to start

another year of learning. The JOM staff

is truly excited about working with the

community once again!

Before planning the upcoming school year,

we enjoyed the summer with 28 Summer

Bridge students. The Summer Bridge

program provided students Kindergarten

through eighth grade with extended

learning opportunities through thematic

learning over a 6-week period to ensure

students continue to attain and sustain

academic progress. Throughout the week

the students were able to relate each activity

to the theme in which they were able to

enjoy experiential learning opportunities to

places such as Meow Wolf, an art museum

located in Santa Fe, Gravity Park, the

Sandia Tram, Rio Grande Zoo and Pueblo of

Isleta Department programs.

Students also enjoyed STEM (science,

technology engineering and math) projects.

Students learned about the weather

patterns and how snow, tornados, thunder

and volcanos are created when there is a

shift in the system. Students built their

own bridge and race cars. The students had

so much fun when it was time to test their

bridges with weights and raced their cars.

It was more exciting to see the enthusiasm

in each student as they built each of their

projects.

Before we share just how busy we’ve been

with the JOM program, we are grateful

and appreciative for all the individuals

who participated in our Summer Bridge

program. We had several departments

participate throughout our Summer Bridge

Program which allowed our students to

visit their departments, introduce them to

various positions within their department

and provided activities and resources for

the students.

The JOM staff would like to take this

opportunity to send out a huge THANK

YOU. Without the transportation support

from Arnold Sena and the recreational staff

at the Pueblo of Isleta Recreation Program

our children would not have been able to

experience educational learning field trips.

Thank you very much! We would also like to

thank the following departments for their

time and dedication during our career week;

Chief Kevin Mariano, Clem Jojola and their

officers at the Isleta Police Department,

Isleta Fire Department, RaeAnn JojolaLucero and Thomas Zuni with the Diabetes

program, Mary O’Hara and Sue Chavez

with the Behavioral Health program,

Nathan Lujan with the Isleta Library and

1st Lt. Max Zuni & Paul Lujan who did

storytelling and introduced animals in

the TEWA language. With many thanks

we wish you and your departments much

success in your future endeavors.

Upon the completion of the Summer Bridge

program, we had taken nine middle and high

school students to Crow Canyon located in

Cortez, Colorado. Throughout the one week,

the students were exposed to the field of

Archeology and took a field trip to Mesa

Verde. Students assisted in the excavation

of a recent site discovered in 2016.

With no time to rest from all our digging

and hiking it was back to business with

JOM’s Back-to-School Supply distribution.

As you know, this is a great time for you to

get to know us and the services we provide

through the JOM program. During these

mandatory meetings you will get a short

overview of the history of JOM, budget

information, eligibility requirements and

learn about services provided to students.

This is also a great opportunity to update all

your contact information so we are able to

communicate important information about

on-going activities and services within the

program.

We also want to say THANK YOU to the

Education Department who every year

takes time out of their busy schedule every

year to help JOM prepare and distribute

over 700 back packs full of school supplies

to our students. Last but not least, we

had three Interns with the JOM program

during the summer, Philana Abeita,

Mariah Montoya and Damacio Chewiwi

who provided so much support to the JOM

program. THANK YOU INTERNS, your

help was greatly appreciated. YOU ROCK!

We welcome and value the positive energy

and dedication to excellence in education by

working diligently to ensure that when your

children return to school, resources are in

September 2017

place to support their learning. The JOM

staff have started planning and preparing

for your students wonderful educational

opportunities for the remainder of the year.

We are also working on two initiatives

with the New Mexico Public Education

Department and Isleta’s Higher Education

program to implement College and Career

Readiness and an Early Warning System

in the Los Lunas School District. Students

in grades 6th through 12th are encouraged

to participate and can sign up at the JOM

office.

As a reminder, in order to build bridges

for our children, all stake holders in

education have responsibilities to provide

the resources needed to ensure students

flourish in the school system. The JOM

program is here to support the bridges

that students will travel over so that they

experience many educational opportunities

we have to offer and find their passion to

seek and gain knowledge.

We are delighted that your students are

part of our JOM community. Parents and

families are important partners in our

students’ education and we look forward to

continuing our work together. The success

of our students depends on your support

and we thank you in advance for all your

hard work.

Recap of Quarter 3: Summer Programming

Quarter 3 began in April and ended in June

2017, which was midway through our Summer

Programming. During Quarter 3, the Spring

Semester After School Program ended and the

Summer Program began. Prevention Activities,

Prevention Awareness, and Education were all

included in the Summer Program. The youth

participated in a variety of activities that included

the High/Low Ropes course at Santa Fe Mountain

Center (SFMC), working with SFMC staff on

Disc Golf in Los Alamos, team building activities,

white water rafting and camping, hiking, planting

the community garden, and hosting our own

Youth Summit Summer Series. Three older

youth attended the “7th Annual THRIVE Youth

Conference” in Portland, Oregon. Two youth,

Glorianna Jaramillo and Lucas Jiron, were in

the Youth Ambassador We R Native track, and

Minewa Jaramillo was in the Digital Storytelling

track.

Health Beat: National Suicide Prevention Week

Sept. 3rd – Sept. 9th is National Suicide Prevention Week;

Sept. 10th is World Suicide Prevention Day. The blue and

turquoise ribbon represents suicide awareness and prevention.

During this week, wear these colors or the ribbon to show your

support for those who have been affected by suicide.

Warning Signs

Do you believe a loved one is contemplating suicide? Are you having suicidal

thoughts? Sometimes it’s hard to tell, so it’s good to know the warning signs.

Use the acronym IS PATH WARM.

Ideas of suicide: expressing suicidal thoughts or desires to die

Substance abuse: excessive use of drugs or alcohol

Purposeless: no reason for living or a burden to others

Anxiety: panicked, restless

Trapped: feeling there is no other solution to problems

Hopelessness: feeling circumstances will not improve

Withdrawing: unresponsive to family, friends or society. Sleeping

too much or too little.

Anger (uncontrolled): easily enraged or seeking revenge

Recklessness: partaking in risky behaviors

Mood changes: dramatic mood swings or constantly feeling down

Express your concern and ask your loved one if s/he is thinking about suicide.

Listen to what they have to say and express empathy rather than offer advice.

In crisis, call a chat line immediately to speak with a counselor or 911. Do not

leave a suicidal person alone.

Our program annually offers the community

garden to youth, clients of IBHS, and/or

community members. Although we had little

participation from community members and

clients, we incorporated our Summer Program

with the Community Garden. The youth planted,

watered, and pulled weeds while they learned

that gardens take patience, positive energy and

the right resources for growth. The youth have

helped the IBHS Community Garden take on

a different appearance than in past years. The

garden received some landscaping features that

include mulched walking paths, mulched areas

to decrease weed growth, and raised garden

beds. The Natural Resources department helped

us with some landscaping features. If anyone

is interested in joining the Community Garden

efforts for next planting season, get in contact with

IBHS @ 505.869.5475. This way we can plan out

the fall schedule and lead into spring scheduling

as well.

IBHS Prevention Youth Summit Summer

Series for ISLETA Youth ages 10 - 17 was held

on June 19 and July 17 and included incentives

and lunches. The Youth Summit was hosted in

collaboration with POI Service Providers. The

Summit Series provided information and education

on Mental Health, Domestic Violence, Healthy

Relationships and Bullying. While the summit

focused on education, experiential learning games

were used to help youth improve communication

skills. We are very grateful to Lt. Governor Max

Zuni, and his staff for providing the pizza and

salad to our Youth participants.

At the close of our summer program, we travelled

up north through Abiqui to El Vado dam and

participated in a white water rafting/camping

overnight trip. The youth learned the basics of

rafting and kayaking on the Rio Chama. This trip

was a wonderful opportunity to build a stronger

connection and create a beautiful memory. We

began our adventure near the El Vado Dam and

spent two days and 25+ miles on the river, often

with heavy rain clouds, thunder, and lightening

in the distance. Some youth had the opportunity

to venture out on single kayaks. Day two was

very exciting as we made our way through the

toughest spots on the river. Our group did a great

job, listening to our guides instructions on when

to paddle, which directions to take and so on. For

many of the youth, this was their first experience

of this kind. At the end of the trip, everyone

had their own exciting stories to share and look

forward to the next adventures.
