Flood Control

The heavy rains yesterday caused several flooding issues in and around High Rolls. Our volunteers were busy filling sand-bags, fixing wash-outs, and re-inforcing areas prone to flooding. Several washed out roads caused problems, the most notable being Old Firehouse and several points along Karr Canyon. A supply of filled sand-bags has been station at the Main Station for use if flooding becomes an issue for the High Rolls area again, over the next few weeks. Otero County and Boles Acres FD provided assistance with the sand-bagging operations.
