Pearce visits Silver Fire Command Center
U.S. Congressman Steve Pearce visited the command center for the Silver Fire in San Lorenzo on
June 15 where he was briefed on the Silver Fire and visited with citizens. "1 would like to thank all our
firefighters across the state for their tireless efforts, and commend them on their remarkable brav-
ery, service, and professionalism;' said Pearce. "1 have been watching the progression of this fire
closely, and my office stands ready to provide any.resources or assistance we can to those af-
fected. Local resldents, evacuees, and flrefighters remain in my prayers." At the time of his visit, the
Silver Fire, in southeast New Mexico near Hillsboro and Kingston, had burned over 17,000 acres, and
remains zero percent contained. Courtesy photo

24k acres burned as of June 18
Submitted by GILA NATIONAL
FOREST/Silver City
A hot and dry air mass with
stronger winds and lower rSlative
humidity has settled over the Sil-
ver Fire resulting in an increase
in fire behavior. Yesterday the fire
moved into Railroad Canyon on
the northwest side and Carbon-
ate and Rattlesnake Canyons on
the northeast side. Fire manage-
ment officials anticipated these
moves and positioned personnel
to take action. Hotshot crews are
working on the western side of
the Silver Fire north of NM High-
way 152 to prepare the area for
action when it is favorable to en-
gage the fire. The 24,800 acre fire
remains at five percent contained.
Incident Commander Matt
Reidy said that he is "pleased with
the progress that firefighters have
made in structure protection
around key areas such as
Kingston and the Royal John
Mine. We have selected areas for
fireline construction along roads,
topography breaks and vegetative
changes between pine forests and
pinyon juniper woodlands that
will provide us the greatest prob-
ability of success in fire contain-
ment."
More than 500 firefighters
are working the fire. Resources
include five helicopters, five 20-
person hotshot crews, four 20-
person hand crews, 16 engines,
two dozers and 11 water tenders.
Several agencies are assist-
ing in the management of the Sil-
ver Fire. Cooperators include the
Grant and Sierra County Sheriff's
Departments, NM State Police,
Las Cruces BLM District, NM
State Forestry and NM Depart-
ment of Transportation.
Daily public meetings con-
tinue to be held each morning at
the Hillsboro Community Center
at 10 a.m.
Multiple closures are in ef-
fect for the Silver Fire. For more

.gov/gila or www.nmroads.com.
