The Citizens Forum, for the U.S. section of the International Boundary and Water Commission, serves “as a focal point for the exchange of information between the USIBWC and the local community regarding ongoing and future USIBWC projects and related activities in the area,” according to a commission statement.

New members are being sought because the current board members’ two-year terms have expired, though former members are eligible to apply. Members, who serve on a volunteer, non-paid basis, take part in three to four public meetings per year.
Applications, which should be submitted by May 5, can be found online. Forms also may be acquired by contacting Leslie Grijalva, acting public affairs officer, at 915- 832-4770 or Leslie.Grijalva@ibwc.gov.
