Tech Upgrades Save Taos Water Users Time and Money

Because of outdated systems and software, local water providers often don’t have the ability to accurately track and report water usage to Taos County residents. To address this problem, the Lower Des Montes Mutual Domestic Water Consumers and Mutual Sewage Association (MDWCA)  reached out the LOR Foundation with a potential solution: upgrading technology. A representative from the Lower Des Montes hoped to purchase new metering hardware to help track water usage and new accounting software to create a more efficient billing system. With LOR’s help, Lower Des Montes MDWCA was able to purchase the new technology without passing any of the cost onto its users—an upgrade that should save the organization and its customers time and money in the future.

This project was fiscally sponsored by the Taos Community Foundation.
