新墨西哥州圣胡安县希普罗克地区，纳瓦霍国议会定于10月30日表决设立紧急响应基金并批准2000万美元补充拨款，以应对圣胡安河洪水造成的灾害。10月23日洪水上涨时，希普罗克分会副主席黛布拉·雅齐等人敦促河岸居民撤离，随后发现河面上漂着来历不明的桶，布卢姆菲尔德市的污水处理设施被洪水冲击、被迫临时停运，未经处理的污水流入圣胡安河；10月25日，纳瓦霍部落公用事业局也通报，希普罗克污水处理厂受洪水影响、正常处理中断。纳瓦霍国总统布·尼格伦的幕僚长莎伦·桑多瓦尔10月26日表示，希普罗克地区约200人撤离、收容所内有150多名部落成员，已评估约500栋房屋受损，仍有三座通往希普罗克社区的桥关闭，总计逾1000名纳瓦霍国成员受水灾影响。印第安卫生局已联系部落，着手评估并采集土壤与水样。
Navajo Nation Council to Vote Oct. 30 on $20 Million Flood Relief Fund; San Juan River Flooding Damaged About 500 Homes Near Shiprock
The Navajo Nation Council was set to vote on October 30 on creating an emergency response fund with a $20 million supplemental appropriation to respond to San Juan River flooding around Shiprock, in San Juan County, New Mexico. When the river rose on October 23, Shiprock Chapter Vice President Deborah Yazzie and others urged riverside residents to evacuate; about 200 people were evacuated and 15 were staying in shelters, according to Sharon Sandoval, chief of staff to Navajo Nation President Buu Nygren, who spoke on October 26. Roughly 500 homes were damaged and more than 1,000 people affected.
The flooding also struck wastewater infrastructure: Bloomfield's treatment plant was inundated and temporarily shut down, sending untreated sewage into the San Juan River, and the Navajo Tribal Utility Authority reported on October 25 that the Shiprock wastewater plant's normal treatment was interrupted. Unidentified barrels were also seen floating on the river.
