SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) - Gov. Susana Martinez has named a businessman from southeastern New Mexico to a commission that oversees the state Department of Transportation.

His appointment is subject to confirmation by the state Senate. The department is responsible for the state's network of highways and bridges.
