Recovery Field Office commander Lt. Col. Roberto Solorzano speaks with members of the team coordinating support for non-federal generators in Puerto Rico on February 8, 2018 during the transition from Albuquerque and Pittsburgh District teams. Until this week, Albuquerque District led the effort to inspect and maintain locally owned generators that pre-date Hurricane Maria's landfall and have been providing essential power to critical public facilities not yet on grid power. Pittsburgh District takes over the lead role for the non-federal generator mission with Kristen Scott serving as the mission manager. USACE has been tasked with the maintenance of locally controlled generators at critical public facilities to ensure they continue to operate until grid-power can be restored. - Operations ensure existing generators can supplement the power needed during the response efforts and remain serviceable for future use - Crews initially assess generators, and then continue to conduct maintenance and repairs when necessary - Crews assessed more than 400 generators on the island - Crews have repaired more than 150 generators and performed generator maintenance more than 290 times
