Wyoming National Guard soldiers responded to a Feb.

description

Summary

Wyoming National Guard soldiers responded to a Feb. 11 request from the governor and Wyoming Homeland Security to mitigate ice-jam induced flooding in Worland and surrounding areas. By Saturday morning, upwards of 50 Guardsmen were working to reinforce berms along the Big Horn River near two overpasses and critical infrastructure near downtown with sandbag-fortified concrete barriers. By Sunday afternoon, with the addition of another 20-man rapid action team (RAT), and as hundreds of community members helped fill sandbags, Guard crews were moving four truckloads of about 200 sandbags an hour out to the berms. Monday, it was determined to dispatch another 20 person RAT team to Worland to help in further operations with sandbags and berms.
