Inspection of Public Records
INSPECTION OF PUBLIC RECORDS
Compliance
Persons have the right to inspect public records of the San Juan Water Commission in accordance with the Inspection of Public Records Act (Chapter 14, Article 2, NMSA 1978) and the San Juan Water Commission recognizes its responsibility as a public body to make public records available for inspection.

Public Records Request
A request to inspect public records may be submitted orally or in writing during regular business hours to the San Juan Water Commission Executive Director, as the custodian of San Juan Water Commission records, at: 

7450 E. Main Street
Farmington, NM 87402
Ph: 505-564-8969
Fax: 505-564-3322

Or by email at: records@sjwc.org

A written or email request must contain the name, address and telephone number of the person submitting the request and the records sought must be described in sufficient detail to enable the San Juan Water Commission staff to identify and locate the records. An email request shall be subject to an email response.

Requests to inspect public records will be processed in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Act. The records custodian must permit inspection immediately or as soon as practicable, but no later than 15 calendar days after the records custodian receives the inspection request. If inspection is not permitted within three business days, the person making the request will receive a written response explaining when the records will be available for inspection or when the public body will respond to the request. If any of the records sought are not available for public inspection, the person making the request is entitled to a written response from the records custodian explaining the reasons inspection has been denied. The written denial shall be delivered or mailed within 15 calendar days after the records custodian received the request for inspection. Currently the San Juan Water Commission is closed Friday through Sunday and those days shall not be included in the 3 day period.
