Alerts

 The presence of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, has been detected at Holloman Lake near Alamogordo. The New Mexico Department of Health encourages anyone who consumed or captured wildlife from Holloman Lake between 2010-2024 to contact their healthcare provider should they have any concerns. Access to the lake and the land surrounding it is currently closed to the public. For the latest information, please visit the Holloman Air Force Base website. Additional information is also available in the New Mexico Environment Department’s report regarding PFAS at Holloman Lake or NMDOH’s health advisory.

Samples are submitted on a rolling basis roughly every 2 weeks. We are currently awaiting results. The CWD page can be found here. Most recent CWD results:
