What past disasters mean for kitchens in Corrales

Federal records show Sandoval County designated in 20 declarations since 1973, led by wildfire (9 declarations) and flooding (5 declarations). If you plan across towns, check the page for Rio Rancho as well; Bernalillo County has 9 federal declarations on record.

The most recent is Severe Storms and Flooding (emergency declaration, EM-3660), declared October 26, 2026, with the incident beginning October 22, 2026. Flooding tends to knock out power and drainage first, leaving kitchens unable to cook or keep food cold even when the building is standing. The latest major disaster declaration is Wildfires, Straight-Line Winds, Flooding, Mudflows, and Debris Flows (DR-4652), declared May 4, 2022. By incident type, the count is wildfire 9, flooding 5, severe storms 4, hurricane 1 and drought 1. By decade: 1970s 2, 1990s 1, 2000s 5, 2010s 10 and 2020s 2. Earlier declarations include El Cajete Fire (FM-5184, June 15, 2017), Severe Storms and Flooding (DR-4197, October 6, 2014), Severe Storms, Flooding, and Mudslides (DR-4152, October 29, 2013), Severe Storms and Flooding (DR-4148, September 30, 2013) and Flooding (DR-4079, August 24, 2012).

Between 2016 and 2025 the Storm Events Database recorded 52 county-based event records in Sandoval County, with flood events the most common at 32. The costliest event with a reported dollar figure was a flash flood in July 2018, with about $1 million in property damage. Flooding fouls kitchen equipment and drainage first, and a kitchen cannot reopen until it has been cleaned and inspected.

Sandoval County is the origin of 2 mapped wildfires of 1,000 acres or more since 2016, adding up to roughly 46,910 acres, according to NIFC. The biggest, Cerro Pelado, burned 45,605 acres in 2022. After a fire, inspections, smoke cleanup and power restoration decide when a kitchen reopens, and the meals have to come from somewhere in between.

A declaration designates an area for federal assistance; it does not describe damage at any one address.

Construction projects and crew meals near Corrales

USASpending.gov lists 10 federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more with work in Sandoval County since October 2021, worth about $24 million together. In September 2019, the Department of Agriculture awarded a $8.6 million contract for “Jemez District Office Complex Construction Project - Office” in Sandoval County, with work running to November 2023 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $5.9 million Department of Agriculture contract, “GAOA Jemez Nra Site Pavement Preservation and Restoration Phase II,” starting September 2024 in Sandoval County (award record). The Department of the Interior committed $2.7 million to “Pueblo Pintado Community School - Football Field” in Sandoval County, awarded September 2024 (award record). Another public record is “Supply Electrical Power to Two Marquees,” a $556,000 Department of the Interior contract from September 2022 in Sandoval County (award record). A contract of that size means a crew that eats on site: hot food for many people on odd shifts, with water and wastewater to plan for the kitchen. A project in Los Ranchos de Albuquerque, about 5,833 residents, would face the same phasing questions about gates, haul roads and pad space.

Major renovation in Corrales

USASpending.gov shows a $837,000 Department of the Interior contract, “Pueblo Pintado Playground Replacement,” starting September 2022 in Sandoval County (award record). Bernalillo is on the same footing: the old kitchen closes on a date, and the temporary one has to be cooking before it.
