(Deming) – Two people were transported to the hospital with injuries sustained in an accident on the Silver City Highway Tuesday afternoon.
     Luna County Sheriff’s Lieutenant Kelly Gannaway said 51-year-old Mary Bautista, and her passenger, 50-year-old Frank Bautista, suffered neck and other injuries in the accident on Highway 180 just north of Diaz Produce Stand.
     Gannaway said 18-year-old Oscar Calderon was driving a 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe south on the Silver City Highway at about 3:45 p.m. Tuesday when he saw some family members walking on the roadside.
     Calderon decided to give them a ride, so he reportedly pulled onto the shoulder, waited for a car to pass, and then attempted to pull a U-turn but pulled into oncoming traffic and was struck by a 2006 Chevrolet Trailblazer being driven south on the Silver City Highway by Mary Bautista.
     Gannaway said Calderon and his passenger were uninjured.
     Calderon was cited for careless driving and driving without a license.

Governor Martinez Enters into SunZia Discussion

4/29/2014

Comments

 
Picture
(Deming) – Gov. Susana Martinez is asking President Barack Obama and U.S. Interior Secretary Sally Jewell to make sure that a proposed transmission line between Arizona and New Mexico doesn't hurt the Army's White Sands Missile Range.
     The Albuquerque Journal reports that Martinez told the top federal officials in a letter last week that a Bureau of Land Management proposal to route 45 miles of the SunZia line through the range should be changed to avoid affecting the range's tests and exercises.
     The Defense Department opposes the proposed route in southern New Mexico. The BLM is part of the Department of Interior.
     The BLM's planning coordinator for New Mexico, Dave Goodman, says the project is stalled until the federal government works out its differences.
     The SunZia and Southline transmission line projects are separate, however proposed routes being considered by SunZia and
Southline parallel each other from Deming to Benson, Arizona.
     Meanwhile, there will be a public meeting in Deming on the Southline project Wednesday, May 7th, from 5:30-8 p.m. in the Mimbres Valley Special Events Center, 2300 East Pine.
