Bill Aymar, Catron County Manager

RESERVE, NM  The Emergency Operations Center is in full operation at the Reserve High School.  Yesterday (Friday) we had Governor Martinez visit us there and at the Luna site.

Reserve experienced a blackout of about 45 minutes last night because the generator that now feeds the system sensed a fault and shut itself down.  The process of checking it and bringing it back up takes about 45 minutes. We have a 45 KW generator coming to hook up to the clinic here in Reserve as well.

The runways at the Reserve Airport (T16) are closed except for emergency fire operations helicopter flights.
