Governor announces an end to the color-coded, county-by-county system of restrictions in two-weeks, July 1, 2021. Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham has said the restrictions would end if 60% of NM residents were vaccinated against COVID-19 by July 1. As of Thursday, the state was at 59%. State officials believe data from recent vaccinations have yet to be added to the statewide total. San Juan County's COVID-19 vaccination rate is 61.7%. Lujan Grisham says the vaccination push will continue.

The new Fire Tower serves as a training facility for the College’s Fire Science program, as well as area firefighters and emergency personnel. It replaced the more than 30-year-old tower, formerly located on the College’s main campus. The fire tower includes a natural gas fire simulator and car fire simulator. Both simulators allow instructors to control every aspect of the fire and are designed to ensure students’ safety.

Farmington Police also identified the officers involved, who are all still on administrative leave. No further information will be released on this incident until the task force has completed their investigation and the District Attorney’s Office has finalized their review.
