SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) - A northern New Mexico farm manager has been appointed to the Water Trust Board by Gov. Susana Martinez.

Ralph Vigil of Pecos will serve a term expiring in June 2015, and his appointment is subject to Senate confirmation.

The 16-member board recommends water projects to the Legislature that should be financed with a portion of state bond proceeds.



Vigil is the president and farm manager of Molino de la Isla Famers’ Cooperative.

He also is chairman of the New Mexico Acequia Commission.
