Piedra River
October 31, 2012--Water 2012 visits Southwest Basin (Alamosa News)
Southwestern Colorado’s rivers are unique in that many of the rivers and tributaries flow from north to south and are administered as independent river systems. This is due to the fact that many, such as the Navajo, Blanco, Piedra, Pine, Florida, Animas, La Plata, and Mancos Rivers, are tributary to the San Juan River in New Mexico or just upstream of the state line.
May 30, 2012--Goal is to keep blaze north of Piedra River (Durango Herald)
Fire crews continued to work mostly within the perimeter of the Little Sand Fire near Pagosa Springs on Monday and built firelines along U.S. Forest Service Road 639. The problems were manageable considering what firefighters are dealing with in southwestern New Mexico. The goal is to keep the fire where it is – north of the Piedra River near Pagosa Springs.

March 27, 2009--New water district seeks funding ideas (Durango Herald)
Members of the board of the La Plata-Archuleta Water District looked to see if residents were willing to pay for rural water needs in the face of countywide growth Thursday night at a public meeting
August 14, 2008--Water district narrowly passes (Durango Herald)
Voters by a slim margin approved the creation of the La Plata Archuleta Water District, which aims to establish a rural water system where residents currently depend on wells or trucked-in water. The district covers primarily southeast La Plata County.
August 1, 2008--LAPLAWD, opponents debate rural water system (Pine River Times)
Arguments for and against a rural domestic water system were presented to Pine River Rotary Club members on July 23. The district is needed because water wells in many part of the county depend on traditional flood irrigation for re-charge.
July 21, 2008--Water plan faces vote in August (Durango Herald)
Residents of southeast La Plata County - who draw their drinking water from wells or truck it in - finally are getting the opportunity to vote on the formation of a potable-water system.
