The Elephant Butte Field Division requires species-specific vegetation management at Caballo Reservoir to remove infestations of tornillo (mesquite) and salt cedar (tamarisk) across four designated treatment parcels, totaling approximately 1,367 acres.

Work will also include GIS-supported treatment boundary mapping and documentation, performed in accordance with applicable environmental compliance requirements, including mitigation measures identified in the project's NEPA documentation.

This effort supports reservoir operations, habitat restoration, and reduction of phreatophyte-driven water loss along the Rio Grande.
