September 24, 2026: The Los Alamos County Justice Center continues to experience issues from a power outage that began on September 23. The outage is preventing access to in-person court services at this time. Court staff will provide services remotely to the extent possible until Monday, September 28.
The hydroelectric plant in Abiquiu has two identical 6.9MW turbine/generators that were installed in 1987. Each unit has two servos per turbine that operate the wicket gates. Los Alamos County had all four servos rehabilitated approximately 10 years ago. The servos are leaking hydraulic oil again and will be replaced.
