N.M. Stat. § 74-10-80
Limitations upon issuance.
No bonds may be refunded under the Solid Waste Authority Act unless the holders
of the bonds voluntarily surrender them for exchange or payment or unless they either
mature or are callable for prior redemption under their terms within ten years from the
date of issuance of the refunding bonds. Provision shall be made for paying the bonds
within that period of time. No maturity of any bonds refunded may be extended over
fifteen years nor may any interest on the bonds be increased to any coupon rate
exceeding the maximum net effective interest rate permitted by the Public Securities Act
[6-14-1 to 6-14-3 NMSA 1978]. The principal amount of the refunding bonds may
exceed the principal amount of the refunded bonds if the aggregate principal and
interest costs of the refunding bonds do not exceed such unaccrued costs of the bonds
refunded. The principal amount of the refunding bonds may also be less than or the
same as the principal amount of the bonds refunded so long as provision is duly and
sufficiently made for their payment.
