[1] Permit hearing for wastewater project near Tesuque draws mixed reaction – Some residents in northern New Mexico are voicing their concerns over a local resort's plan to dump its treated wastewater near a local water source. The Bishop's Lodge Resort in Tesuque is asking the state for a wastewater discharge permit. Residents say it would allow the lodge to release 30,000 gallons per day of partially treated sewage, putting surrounding areas at risk. An attorney for Bishop's Lodge argues their wastewater system is state-of-the-art and safe. A spokesperson for the New Mexico Environment Department says the matter is now in the hands of the cabinet secretary.
[2] Judge denies motion to dismiss charges for man accused of assault at McDonald's – Last year, surveillance video shows a man violently beating another customer, leaving him in a coma.

The judge denied the defense's motion. She also denied the defense's motion asking for him to be released pending trial. He is charged with aggravated assault.

A New York Times article published last week highlighted how some inmates would choose to walk along the road after being released. The jail is in a a remote area with little-to-no lighting and no sidewalks. In the last ten years, at least five people who have been released have been killed while walking along NM 14. The jail warden says everyone is offered a ride to a designated location once they're released.
