“I would like to thank all of you have helped me in many ways, and my past sponsors, Mark and Sofia Zuniga and Chespeake Energy for your generosity,” said Martinez.

RCDC guards are sentenced for smuggling

Several former Reeves County Detention Center employees were sentenced in U.S. Federal Court in Midland last week on charges mostly related to attempt to smuggle unauthorized items for inmates into the prison.

John E. Murphy, Acting United States Attorney, announced that in Midland Thursday, Jacob C. Guzman of Pecos, Texas, a former corrections officer at the Reeves County Detention Center (RCDC), was sentenced to 46 months in federal prison followed by three years of supervised release for accepting bribes, attempted destruction of evidence and attempted smuggling of contraband to federal prisoners.

On June 2, 2009, a federal jury found that on two occasions in 2008, Tennessee relatives of a Reeves County Detention Center inmate wire transferred a total of $600 to Guzman in Pecos, in exchange for Guzman’s agreement to smuggle cell phones, tobacco, and mp3 players into the facility, where they were illicitly disseminated to inmates. Federal rules prohibited all of those items inside the facility.

In addition to Guzman, United States District Judge Robert A. Junell sentenced two other former RCDC corrections officers Thursday.

Pecos resident Jerri Ornelas was sentenced to 24 months in federal prison followed by three years of supervised release for providing tobacco to inmates in exchange for $450. Silvia Chairez, of Pecos, was sentenced to 24 months in federal prison followed by three years of supervised release for accepting over $4,300 in bribes in exchange for smuggling cell phones and other contraband to inmates at that facility.

On Wednesday, Junell sentenced former RCDC Life Skills Instructor Velma Jean Payan, of Pecos, to 24 months in federal prison followed by three years of supervised release for smuggling marijuana and tobacco to inmates in exchange for $2,000. That came after Junell on July 31 sentenced former RCDC case manager Moises B. Martinez, Jr., to 30 months in federal prison followed by three years supervised release for smuggling tobacco and other contraband to prisoners.

These cases were investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Department of Justice—Office of Inspector General and security officials with the Reeves County Detention Center. Assistant United States Attorneys John S. Klassen and Sandy Stewart prosecuted these cases on behalf of the Government.

Feds charge Odessa man with food bank scam

An Odessa man faces federal charges in connection with an alleged scheme to steal information from the West Texas Food Bank and use that information for personal benefit.

John E. Murphy, Acting United States Attorney, announced that in Midland, 59-year-old Charles Edward Curry of Odessa, faces federal charges in connection with an alleged scheme to steal personal identification information and use that information for personal benefit.

A federal grand jury indicted Curry last Wednesday on four counts of wire fraud and four counts of aggravated identity theft. The indictment alleges that from November 2008 until August 2009, while working at the West Texas Food Bank and residing at the Salvation Army in Odessa, Curry engaged in a scheme to steal personal information from Temporary Housing Client Record Cards of at least 57 individuals who had stayed at the Salvation Army as well as illegally obtaining checking account information of donors who submitted monetary donations by check to the food bank. In all, Curry allegedly was responsible for obtaining thousands of dollars in money or goods by fraudulent pretenses.

The indictment further alleges that Curry used the stolen information and money to obtain credit cards. He subsequently paid for internet services, flowers, utilities, lawn and garden supplies, and even a traffic ticket using those credit cards.

Curry was arrested on Friday. The indictment was unsealed this morning by United States Magistrate Judge David Counts during Curry’s Initial Appearance. Curry remains in federal custody pending a detention hearing scheduled for 10 a.m. on Thursday before Judge Counts.

Upon conviction, Curry faces up to twenty years in federal prison per fraud count; and a mandatory two years in federal prison per aggravated identity theft count, to run consecutive to any sentence imposed on the fraud counts.

This case was investigated by the Odessa Police Department. It is being prosecuted for the United States by Assistant United States Attorney Austin Berry.

Deputy warns about border burglar threat

Burglaries along the border are keeping officers busy and the Reeves County Sheriff’s Department wanted to warn the citizens.

“Reeves County Sheriff’s Office would like to inform the citizens of Reeves County and surrounding counties of an influx of crime in border counties in what is called 'South Bound Burglaries',” said Reeves County Sheriff’s Captain Reno Lewis. Counties along the Rio Grande Border are being burglarized by subjects walking to Mexico, according to Lewis.

Information provided by counties indicated that subjects that are bringing illegal contraband in to the United States and when returning, burglarizing residences in remote areas.

Main items taken are firearms and property that is easily carried and then sold in Mexico, according Lewis.

“Reeves County has not had any burglaries of this sort yet, but the crime is expanding out beyond border counties,” he said. The sheriff’s office would like to inform the citizens that if they have residences in a remote area to remove their property to a safe place.

“If you find a subject on your property, do not approach them, they could be armed, please contact the sheriff’s office,” Lewis said.

New safety laws may force major Red Bluff repairs

Red Bluff Water Power Control District board members are hoping to avoid having to make millions of dollars worth of improvements to the dam and spillway system at Red Bluff Lake in order to comply with new state dam safety rules.

But the district will have to wait several more months until they find out if a study done by HDR Engineering will allow smaller changes planned by the district will be enough to meet the new state guidelines.

Rick Shoemaker, HDR's project manager for Red Bluff, met with the board on Tuesday during their regular monthly meeting and discussed the preliminary stages of the company's study, which is being done to comply with Texas Commission on Environmental Quality rules implemented at the start of this year.

The study included a “worst case” scenario for flooding along the Pecos River in the areas that feed into Red Bluff Lake from the Orla area north to Brantley Dam in New Mexico. The worst case numbers are based on 27 inches of rain falling onto saturated ground in the area over a 72-hour period with lake levels just below the dam's spillway, based on the high-water mark reached during the past decade.

“Imagine that amount of rainwater, it would be one million cubic/feet per second,” Shoemaker said. He added that based on a study conducted in the 1970s by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Red Bluff Lake could only hold 70 percent of the floodwaters before overtopping.

“We're doing some tinkering, but our study shows it will not pass a possible maximum flood,” he said. “You will either have to raise the dam, or increase the capacity of the spillway.”

Board members had previously discussed locking the spillway gates in the open position, but Shoemaker said HDR would have to do further studies to see if that option will be enough to meet the new state standards.

“It's hard to say how raising the dam increases the capacity of the spillway because of one one-in-10,000 years Noah's Ark event. It's tough,” he said, while adding because of the earthen dam design at Red Bluff, overtopping would likely result in the dam being washed out.

He said the gates at the 73-year-old dam are similar, but smaller, than the gates at Buchanan Dam, which is currently having its spillway rehabilitated by the Lower Colorado River Authority.

“They're spending about $800,000 per gate, so it's in the $37-$42 million range,” Shoemaker said. “Y'all have eight gates,” which he said, based on the smaller size, would still cost between $4 and $5 million to repair, along with repairs to the spillway's concrete.

“We may need to take them out to get the full spillway capacity,” said managing director Randal Hartman.

“Once you do that, there's no going back, and it would be tens of millions of dollars to put new gates in,” Shoemaker said. On the second option, to lock the gates in open position, he said the TECQ wanted something more permanent than chaining them in place to be done. That included welding support posts into place, but he added, “I wouldn't do any welding, but it wouldn't hurt right now to raise them up.”

Shoemaker said since 1936, the water levels at Red Bluff have only reached the spillway's gates six times, the last being in 1987, just prior to the opening of Brantley Dam, between Carlsbad and Artesia in Eddy County, N.M. He added that the average annual storage capacity in the lake over the 73 years has been under 100,000 acre/feet, or about a third of the lake's maximum capacity.

Shoemaker said the district has to have an emergency action plan in place by the end of 2010, and expected his report to be completed by the end of this year. Part of that also includes surveying the land along the river down to the Sullivan's Bridge area northeast of Pecos, to see what homes, highways or well sites might be affected by a worst-case flood.

The plan will also include co-ordinating with law enforcement and emergency responders in Reeves, Loving and Ward counties on a plan of action if a flood occurs. Shoemaker will also include operation and maintenance plans for Red Bluff Dam as part of his final report.

The other problem addressed by Shoemaker in his preliminary report was the growth of brush downstream from the lake, and the disappearance or damage to weirs over the past 4-5 years to measure seepage coming from the bottom of the dam. He said replacement of the W-1 weir on the west side of the river, was the most important step to take.

“The west side of the dam is built of the Rustler Formation, which is built on gypsum, which is a soluble formation,” he said. The gypsum can be washed out by fresh water, creating holes in the dam's substructure, though Shoemaker said there has been no indication of further erosion over the past decade, and the high salt content of the lake's water actually helps slow the gypsum erosion.

In other action on Tuesday the board approved routine reports, and agreed to look at reallocating unused 2009 water allotments that have been turned back to the district.

“We're interested. We've already got two farmers out of water,” said Robin Hernandez with Ward County Water Irrigation District No. 1 in Barstow. Hernandez said the district would like to get the 300 acre/feet of water recently returned by Reeves County WID No. 2 to Red Bluff.

Pecos area's industrial needs, plans detailed to state officials

Local officials plan a trip to Austin later this month, to meet with representatives of state agencies and other governmental officials on projects being sought for the Pecos area.

The meeting was set up following this past Thursday's business seminar held between representatives of some of those agencies and local businessmen and elected officials. Members also talked with U.S. Rep. Ciro Rodriguez during the day-long meeting, held at the Odessa College-Pecos Technical Training Center.

“I think it was helpful towards finding solutions for the state and regional offices to meet with the people out here, and for them to see the needs of rural Texas,” said Pecos Economic Development Corp. President Robert Tobias. “For us to attract those types of new businesses will take a lot of new infrastructure, and I know they were surprised by the quality of the projects and by the quality of the guys doing the projects.”

Tobias said the discussions scheduled for Thursday, Sept. 24, involve industrial projects, such as the Texsand intermodal rail yard, work being done currently by Applied Research Associates at the Pecos RTC side in eastern Reeves County, and a solar energy project also looking at the Pecos area. He said representatives from those businesses would join him and some other local officials and members of the Pecos Chamber of Commerce in making the trip to Austin.

“It's the first time the governor's office will sit down with a rural community like this, and part of it because of our closeness working with UTSA and their rural business program,” Tobias said.

Thursday's morning session involved a seminar conducted by Tom Lang with CPS Energy out of San Antonio on identifying critical business project goals for Pecos and the steps needed to make those projects successful over the next six years. Among the items involved increasing both the number of local workers and the per capita income for workers in the areas.

Rodriguez spoke to the group later in the morning and discussed federal funding available through state agencies, such as $300 million recently given to the Texas Water Development Board.

“Because of what we did, no entity should have to raise taxes,” the congressman said.

It was Rodriguez’s second visit in two weeks to Pecos, and he spent part of his time during the seminar again going over health care reform plans being debated in Congress.

He also said funds for infrastructure that had been in the original stimulus plan earlier this year had been stripped out before final approval, but in response to a question said he was not in favor of tolling already-built highways to raise infrastructure funds.
