Governor Issues Order To Keep Propane Available

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — Gov. Susana Martinez has issued an executive order to keep a steady supply of propane throughout New Mexico as winter weather continues in the state.

The order suspends regulations that limit the number of hours propane suppliers are allowed to drive.

The governor has issued other orders related to the bad weather. She put the state National Guard on standby Saturday and ordered several state agencies to work closely together to monitor and prepare for the storm.

The National Weather Service says some cities in southeastern New Mexico likely broke one-day snowfall records this weekend.
