Landlord's responsibility?

According the New Mexico State Bar a landlord must:
Supply running water, a reasonable amount of hot water and reasonable heat in the dwelling unit at all times.

I assume that means making sure the plumbing, hot water, and heater are in working order and not that a landlord must pay gas and water, right?

I'm not in New Mexico, but I've never heard of a landlord being required to pay the utilities. I'm sure it means that you just need to have those things in working order.
