Extractions: Las Vegas, Nevada Nevada's tremendous population growth has dramatically changed the state's racial and ethnic picture. The Hispanic population grew 131% between l980 and 1990. Of the 124,000 Hispanics in Nevada in 1990, nearly 70 percent were from Mexico. Additional immigrants came from other Central and South American countries as well as Puerto Rico and Cuba. The booming job market in Nevada offered primarily poverty level or near- poverty level wages to many of these non-English speaking and unskilled workers. Southern Nevada nutrition specialists conducted a needs assessment in 1992. During this process local agencies expressed concern regarding the lack of educational programs for Hispanic families. Coordinators for WIC (a supplemental, nutritional program for Women, Infants and Children) reported that there were 5,223 Hispanic participants (35% of total) in the WIC program in Clark County. Difficulties were identified in meeting the needs of these clients since many did not speak English and needed more intensive nutrition education than WIC was able to provide. Initial screenings indicated a growing number of Hispanics at a high nutritional risk. In a recent study, Eliades and Suitor (1994) document food- related problems that immigrants experience in their new environment. Some of these problems are: a) difficulty in obtaining familiar foods and spices; b) when obtained, the cost of these foods is high; c) inability to locate acceptable substitutes for familiar food items; and d) inability to read labels and information on food packages.

Rural Statistics By Kathy Christie Reprinted with permission from Phi Delta Kappan , February 2001. Schools in rural America face an array of problems every bit as daunting and intractable as those confronting schools in urban communities. In rural communities, graduating students who see no future locally leave town, and a snowball effect begins. These young people are no longer there to start families, to send their children to school, to buy toothpaste from the local druggist or houses from the local realtor. A brain drain begins that leaves fewer high-quality workers to attract high-quality jobs. Fewer high-quality jobs means even fewer opportunities for the next generation of students, who will find themselves forced by economic necessity to leave the community. In fact, in 22 states, more than half of all rural schools lost students between the 1994-95 and 1997-98 school years, according to the newsletter Rural Policy Matters. Those states with the highest percentages of enrollment loss were Louisiana, Idaho, North Dakota, West Virginia and Wyoming. States with large rural populations have begun to face these and other problems of rural schooling directly.

Responsible water-resource management is an urgent concern for citizens and governments in rural Nevada. Recognizing that no single agency, government, community, or citizen organization can successfully navigate the complex economic, environmental and social aspects of water sustainability, a group of rural leaders from Elko, Esmeralda, Eureka, Lander, Nye and White Pine Counties initiated stakeholder discussions in February, 2005. These discussions, hosted by Nye County, resulted in a joint recommendation for creation of a Central Nevada Regional Water Authority (Authority). The Authority, as presently considered by the respective County Commissions, is a separate legal entity that will exercise power, privilege and authority in common under Nevada Revised Statute 277 (the Interlocal Cooperation Act). Mission . The mission of the Central Nevada Regional Water Authority is to prepare communities in central and eastern Nevada for sound water-resource decisions that promote prosperous economies and strong civic institutions in a healthy natural environment. Objectives . Under the interlocal agreement, member counties will work cooperatively to formulate water-resource solutions that:
