CARSON CITY -- An 18-year employee of the Nevada Youth Training Center in Elko has been appointed its superintendent.

Dale E. Warmuth, who as been acting superintendent since July, will now hold the job permanently at the juvenile detention center for males, Willie Smith, deputy director for corrections in the state Division of Children and Family Services, said.

Warmuth succeeds longtime director Ed Burgess, who retired from the minimum-security center, which has 160 beds for delinquents between 12 and 18 years old.

Smith said Warmuth has held line and supervisory positions during his 18 years at the center, the oldest state-operated juvenile institution.

The salary range for the job is $68,000 to $74,000, depending whether the state or the individual pays his premiums to the retirement system.
