As the search continued into the evening and temperatures began to drop, Lieutenants Hernandez and Darr made the decision to issue an emergency alert via Rave Mobile Safety. Within 45 minutes of the alert being sent, a local citizen who received the notification spotted the individual and reported his location. The missing male was located and provided with medical attention.

In recognition of their quick thinking and decisive actions, Lieutenants Hernandez and Darr were honored with the Rave Mobile Safety Smart Save Award, presented by Coconino County Emergency Management leadership. (Pictured from left to right: Tim Carter, Lt Ryan Darr, Wes Dison, and Lt Hernandez)

ICYMI: Coconino County had proud successes and contributions this year. We're highlighting them leading up to the new year. First up: U.S. Forest Service and NRCS pledged a total of $7M in fed funding for watershed restoration, a critical first step for flood mitigation. Thank you to all who helped make this happen!

Last month, the U.S. Forest Service announced $3.5 million in funding to Coconino County's Flood Control District for on-forest watershed restoration measures. Thank you to Senator Kyrsten Sinema, Senator Mark Kelly, and Rep. Tom O'Halleran for their instrumental efforts in securing this critical funding. Coconino County also thanks the U.S. Forest Service and all those who helped secure this funding for Coconino County Flood Control District's on-forest watershed restoration measures.
