Hueco-Mesilla Bolsons AquiferGroundwater Availability Model (GAM)This map shows the extent and location of the Hueco-Mesilla Bolsons Aquifer Groundwater Availability Model.

The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in Albuquerque in cooperation with El Paso Water Utilities has developed a numerical groundwater flow model of the Hueco Bolson Aquifer in Texas, New Mexico, and Mexico.

CH2M Hill in cooperation with El Paso Water Utilities has developed a numerical flow model of the Mesilla Bolson Aquifer in Texas based on a previous model by A. Curtis Weeden, Jr and Thomas Maddock III (Simulation of Groundwater Flow in the Rincon Valley Area and Mesilla Basin, New Mexico and Texas).
