The 'gfeen bridge' to tnake historical ntove BY DIANNE STALLINGS RUIDOSO NEWS STAFF WRITU

A steel bridge built in 1902 and moved to the Rio Hondo near Pica­cho in 1944 may .be moved one more time in an attempt to pre-serve it. -....

Dav~ Harkness, property devel­opment manager fur the Farm and Ranch Heritage Museum in Las Cruces, a division of the state Of­f;i~ of Cultural Affairs, said relo­cating tli"e"lJridge would serve a practical purpose as well.

Along with the museum that opened two years ago, the state has

20-acres of property to be devel­oped.over the next five to seven years.

"The property is divided by 'lbr­tugas Arroyo and during the rainy season, a significant amount of water flows," he said. "Our problem was how to develop a circulation for visitors from one side to the other.

"We looked at building a bridge and then thought it would be nice if we could find a historic bridge in­stead."

Museum officials were unsure· evert if they fonnd such a bridge tqat it could be moved, he said.

At the other end of the probl'fun,

Ralph Dunlap, a former Lincoln County commissioner, was inter­ested in finding a home for The Green Bridge, a 133-foot long, 16-foot wide, 22-foot high· span that was usurped in 1987 by a new bridge over the Rio Hondo.

"The olcl bridge would only carry 15 tons and we needed some­thing with more capacity," Dunlap said Thursday. "But after the new bridge went in, the~s.te Highway Department told ·that the old bridge had to be pre rved because it was the only one o its kind left in

Officials disregard water law According to ordinance, 'extreme' conditions exist

BY jAMES I<ALVELAGE RUIDOSO Nl:.WS STAJ-1' WRITER

Ruidoso should have been in the most severe phase of its water conser­vation program since at least the end of March, according to a village ordi­nance regarding the issue.

, The failure to conform to the water conservation ordinance bench­marks was raised during this week's village council meeting by councilor Leon Eggleston.

"I know we're in phase three, but I got some reports from Richard · Sanchez (the village's water depart­ment director) that look like we should be in phase four," Eggleston said.

"Probably within the next couple of weeks we will," said Robert Don­aldson, Ruidoso's mayor.

"We sort of left it up to Richard (Sanchez) to say when he's not com­fortable," Donaldson said of the delay to move to phase 4 despite what is spelled out in the law. "And he said for now he's comfortable through mid­May, but that could change, too. As soon 'as Richard wants to go to phase four, we'll go to it."

Sanchez conceded Thursday the triggers for phase four had been met. He said he was unsure at what point in the recent past the more restrictive criteria had been reached.

The village's water contingency plan ordinance states that phase four, the most extreme water conservation phase, is triggered when any two of

Lack of moisture puts fire resources on 'high alert' BY DIANNE STAlliNGS RUIDOSO N.l:.WS STAFF WRITER

The Sierra Blanca snow course, where the an­nual snowpack is measured, earned the distinction ofbeing the only basin in the state to record the low­est snowpack for a 15-year period every month this year.

A snowstorm right before the last measurement April 2, saved the basin from going two months in a row with some of its designated spots completely bare.

County Manager 'Ibm Stewart said state offi­cials are bracing for a tough year in terms of fires .

He attended the Governor's drought task force meeting in Santa Fe April5, called by the New Mex­ico Office of Emergency Management.

"The long-range forecast for rain during the pe­riod of April to June is not good," Stewart said. "Fire resources have been placed on alert around the state. As of this date, the state has experienced 301 forest fire incidents so far this year as compared to a total of225 fires in a normal year."

According to Richard Armijo and Dan Murray, who prepare the monthly basin report for the feder­al Natural Resources Conservation Service, the snowpack data for Marrh set a new record mini­mum for the month at five percent of average, down from last year's 27 percent.

"The snow season in the Rio Hondo Basin has been a lack luster season at best," they wrote in the report.

The basin includes Ruidoso and follows the Rui­doso River along U.S. 70 to the point where it merges with the Rio Bonito to become the Rio Hondo, then continues east.

The rest of the county falls within the Pecos River Basin.

The snow pack is measured on the first or sec­ond day of February, March and April.

The stream flow forecast for the Rio Hondo Basin is for 39 percent of average or 2,500 acre feet of runoff March through June. An acre foot equates to 325,851 gallons.

Armijo said the basin received 49 percent of the average amount of precipitation for March, faring

. slightly better than February, but still remains well below average.

Rain Thesday that measured at less than half an inch did little to alleviate the situation other than wetting down the forest, officials said.

Dick Wisner, a director of the Ruidoso River As­sociation, said water is barely trickling in the river.

"It's the worst drought in 25 years," he said. "There won't be spring run off to recharge the aquifer (underground water supply) or to refill Grindstone Reservoir.

"Whereas last spring, the river was flowing con­tinuously at 10 cubic feet per second or more, the highest flow any time this spring was just over two cfs."

Grindstone Reservoir will have to wait on sum­mer monsoon rains to refill, he said.

"The only good news on the drought is that the National Weather Service now predicts a wet sum­mer," Wisner said.

The situation is better in the Pecos Basin, with

White Oaks has no idle men. When the South Homes­take started up, miners were in demand and now all have employment.

Geo. Serborugh was killed at Deming a few days ago. He was one of the best officers and

detectives in New Mexico and killed by rustlers or cattle thieves as it is supposed. It is time the good people of this Thrritory took this thieving business in hand and hung a lot of gentry who steal for a liv­ing and way-lay and kill offi­cers whom they fear.

. Don't let visioning overwhelm the vision

' '

Visioning is apnicess. It was a hot topic in Ruidoso in 1997, with expert~! coming .b:l to prim& the pump ~com­munity involvement, cltweloP a · coDsen&Ull fin' posilWe change, build a solid fuunda~ fur JllllllBSWlble growth in a new centuey. .. . , . .

~ People got excite<J about the prospectS - using the re­souxces of a growing population to imprOve. the environ­ment, s.!lt workable paramet.ets fin' m~pal services, find fair ways to pay fin' the inft'astJ::ueture necessary to meetthe~enge~rapid,growth. · . '' ·

In ~ct, that prqject might be Sllen as ,the last · gasp of a departiug administration. Ama,.,.-was ~ted and a new one bounded o$ the stage. TbB''rillage man~ . ager left; ftir potentially greroer pastures. · ·

The A'esb new administration of Robert Donaldson charged 4bead with a vision o(.its own '- a blend of simle of tb:e things (like "impact tees~ on developem) that came out of the visioning exercise and a few things s.ome people said they wanted, like 'an indoor swimming pool and recre- . ation center. ~t fees- arguably the most workable and fair way

anybody bas ciome up· with to build and maintain necessi­ti8!1 like water and sewer lines on an ongoing basis- were put into effi>ct 'in an adu1~at,ecJ furm. Administration ~ the system with its cobb up long-term paymettt plan soon was clemopstrated to a nightmare, and it was dumped. The only tongilile ult was 11 huge backlog of building permits applied fin' befure the impact tee de,ad­line, making 1998 a very gOOd year for coruitru.ctilm, sta­tistically. That backlog also kept lots of constructioll work­ers busy through 1999 and eve11 into the new· century. ·-a .. thlit recr'oiatimi ..:.,.;-•..:0-terwas dro~~ the .7--.o., ' .a"~ ..... :_,. 11" > lis " ' ~-A-

' And now another "viliio.dui survey is about to start - see what the populace really wants :frOm its village goverlllllellt, prqject-wise. The $6,000 S1ll'Vey i>ackage pre­sumably will give village hall something to do that people will like.

Trouble iS, ilearly everybody bas a .ditl'erent vision of ltuidoso, one that only tbey can provi,de.
