Camino Real Regional Utility Authority (CRRUA) Arsenic Contamination

Our Environmental Litigation Attorneys Are Fighting for Justice in the Arsenic Contamination Crisis in New Mexico

The Camino Real Regional Utility Authority (CRRUA) in the greater Santa Teresa Area of New Mexico, is alleged to have knowingly distributed water with arsenic levels exceeding legal limits, ignoring repeated warnings from regulatory authorities and failing to adequately warn residents. This reckless behavior puts the safety and well-being of Sunland Park residents and nearby communities at risk.

What is Arsenic?

Arsenic, a dangerous and highly toxic substance, has been found in groundwater and poses severe health risks. Symptoms of arsenic exposure include:

• Nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain
• High blood pressure and muscle cramping
• Hair loss and skin disorders

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has classified arsenic as the "perfect poison," warning of its odorless, tasteless nature and its ability to cause undetectable long-term harm.
