Level 3 Wildfire Season
OEM release - SALEM, Ore. — The Oregon Department of Emergency Management (OEM) has activated the State Emergency Coordination Center (ECC) as of 8 a.m. on July 17, 2026, escalating to Level 3: Regional Response as wildfire conditions intensify across the state. At this time, the activation will be conducted in a hybrid format. This activation allows OEM and partner agencies to increase coordination, situational awareness and resource support as wildfire danger escalates. Representatives from key state agencies will staff the ECC virtually to streamline communication and ensure timely assistance to affected communities. Wildfire Conditions Across Oregon - Hot, dry weather and increasing winds are contributing to elevated fire danger in multiple regions. Several areas have entered Red Flag Warnings and Fire Weather Watches, with additional alerts expected as conditions worsen. Rapid fire spread, reduced visibility from smoke, and strain on local response resources remain ongoing concerns. OEM urges people in Oregon to stay alert, take precautions to reduce wildfire risk, and be ready to act quickly should evacuation levels change.

Emergency Conflagration Act Invoked in Wheeler Co.
OR State Fire Marshal release - SALEM, Ore. – On Friday afternoon, the Emergency Conflagration Act was invoked for the Rowe Creek Complex in Wheeler County. The Oregon State Fire Marshal has assigned its Green Incident Management team and four task forces from Clackamas and Lane counties and two from the state of Washington. The complex is made up of the Camel Hump, Crosswhite, and Redrock fires. As of Friday morning, the three fires had burned 15,018 acres; the estimated acreage is likely much higher based on fire behavior Friday afternoon. The Wheeler County Sheriff’s Office has levels 2 and 3 evacuation notices in place for communities near these fires. The agency is sharing evacuation information on their Facebook page and on their Genesys Protect dashboard. On Thursday night, the Oregon State Fire Marshal assigned two structural task forces to Wheeler County through Immediate Response. These firefighters worked to protect homes and critical infrastructure. The region is seeing challenging fire conditions with tinder dry fuels and an unfavorable forecast with temperatures expected to climb into the upper 90s, and possibly triple digits. A Red Flag Warning is in place for parts of North Central Oregon through Friday night. “The extreme fire conditions, the forecast, and these recent wildfires have challenged our firefighters,” State Fire Marshal Mariana Ruiz-Temple said. “We are using every tool at our disposal to protect homes and communities from these fires. I ask that every Oregonian pay close attention to these wildfires and if you are asked to evacuate to do so.” The Oregon State Fire Marshal Green Incident Management Team will be in unified command with a federal incident management team, Northwest Team 2, which has also been assigned to the complex. This is the fourth time the Emergency Conflagration Act has been invoked in 2026. It is also the fourth conflagration since July 10, 2026.

Emergency Conflagration Act Invoked in Deschutes & Jefferson Counties
Oregon State Fire Marshal release - On Saturday morning, the Emergency Conflagration Act was invoked for the Akawa Butte and Brewer fires in Deschutes and Jefferson counties. The Oregon State Fire Marshal is assigning its Red Incident Management Team and several task forces to the fires to work alongside its wildland partners to protect nearby communities and critical infrastructure. Hot, dry weather and strong, shifting winds created difficult firefighting conditions across Central Oregon Friday. The fires have grown significantly, threatening nearby communities. The Deschutes and Jefferson County sheriff’s offices have levels 1, 2, and 3 evacuation notices in place. Those looking for evacuation information should follow their local sheriff’s office. Conditions will continue to be hot and dry on Saturday. The wind will be light in the morning but is expected to increase in the afternoon. Fire managers expect challenging, wind-driven fire activity later in the day. “The conditions we’re seeing across Oregon have challenged firefighters for the past week and the current forecast isn’t providing much relief,” State Fire Marshal Mariana Ruiz-Temple said. “I’m urging every Oregonian to be wildfire aware and to sign up for their county’s emergency alerts. Know the evacuation levels and follow them if they are issued.” The Oregon State Fire Marshal Red Incident Management Team will be in unified command with the Oregon Department of Forestry’s Team 2. This is the fifth time the Emergency Conflagration Act has been invoked in 2026. The Oregon State Fire Marshal is posting updates on incidents it has resources assigned to on osfminfo.org. Oregonians can sign up for emergency alerts at oralert.gov.

Additional Complex Incident Management Team to Central Oregon Wildfires
OR Dept. of Forestry release - PRINEVILLE, Ore. – The Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) is deploying its Complex Incident Management Team 3 (CIMT) to manage the Brewer and Box Springs wildfires in the Prineville and Sisters area. This is the third and last ODF-staffed team the department has available. The deployment is necessary due to the unusual early season “resistance to control” nature of these lightening caused fires in central Oregon. The Brewer fire started Wednesday and grew to estimated 14,000 acres today; on Thursday it was at 3,000 acres. It is currently managed by ODF CIMT 2, but Team 2 also has the Pilot and Akawa fires. So, ODF CIMT 3 will take over the Brewer fire and the Box Springs fire. Box Springs was only 40 acres this morning but has grown rapidly. It is burning in timber and grass. ODF firefighters describe some of the terrain as steep nasty canyons and draws which make it difficult to battle. ODF fire managers stress patience and safety as resources are stretched thin and firefighters have been putting in long days and nights. All local resources are committed but additional air and ground firefighting resources have been ordered through partnerships with other states. However, it may take a while to fulfill all the requests since the Northwest region has multiple large fires asking for additional resources. The fires managed by both ODF CIMTs in central Oregon have evacuation orders that are issued by county sheriff’s offices, to see the latest and to set up alerts from the counties go to: https://centraloregonfire.org. The public is urged to avoid these areas due to heavy firefighting traffic and possible road closures.

Fire Resources from California & Washington Requested
OR State Fire Marshal release - SALEM, Ore. – With Oregon’s fire protection resources heavily committed to wildfires across the state, the Oregon State Fire Marshal is bringing in five task forces from California and two task forces from Washington to focus on protecting communities and critical infrastructure as the state faces extreme fire conditions. Earlier this week thunderstorms moved through the region, dropping thousands of lightning strikes and sparking numerous wildfires. These additional firefighters and equipment will support fires the state fire marshal has resources assigned to and will be available for any emerging incidents. The resources were mobilized through the Emergency Management Assistance Compact in coordination with the Oregon Department of Emergency Management. “The Oregon fire service is doing extraordinary work across the state, but the number of active incidents is placing a significant demand on the system,” State Fire Marshal Mariana Ruiz?Temple said. “Bringing in resources from other states is a common practice that supports the entire wildfire response system.” The California resources will be assigned according to incident priorities and may support community defense, structure triage, protection of critical infrastructure, and other missions aligned with their qualifications. The task forces from Washington are working alongside Oregon crews in Wheeler County on the Rowe Creek Complex. The Oregon Department of Forestry, tribal, and federal wildland agencies will continue managing wildland suppression operations within their respective jurisdictions. The Oregon State Fire Marshal resources, including those arriving from California and Washington, are focused on reinforcing local fire service capacity and community protection efforts. “Oregon, California, and Washington have a long history of helping one another during emergencies,” Ruiz-Temple said. “Oregon firefighters supported California communities in 2025 during the Los Angeles wildfires, and we are grateful that our neighboring states are able to answer Oregon’s request for help.” The Oregon State Fire Marshal has resources assigned to four conflagrations and one Immediate Response incident.

Secretary Read Pushes Back on DHS Secretary Mullin’s Newest Threats Against Election Workers
SALEM, OR — Friday, Department of Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin threatened state elections officials with fines and jail time if they don’t participate in the federal government’s unlawful attempts to control how states run elections. To date, the Trump administration is 0-13 in court when attempting to force states to provide private voter data to the federal government. Oregon Secretary of State Tobias Read released the following statement: “In Oregon, we respect the law and the Constitution of the United States, and we will not let Washington D.C. politicians compromise our elections. I will defend our elections workers, Oregonians’ private voter data, our infrastructure, or anything else they come after with every tool at my disposal. “Secretary Mullin’s comments today are just more proof that his boss is scared of losing the elections in November, and they are looking for shortcuts instead of doing their jobs and making life better for the American people. “Oregon will have a secure and fair election this November, the results will accurately reflect the votes of our citizens, and politicians will have to accept the outcome, whether they like it or not.”

OSP report - UMATILLA COUNTY, Ore. (17 July 2026) – On Thursday, July 16, 2026, at 8:27 a.m., the Oregon State Police responded to a single-vehicle serious injury crash on Interstate 84 eastbound near milepost 207 in Umatilla County. The preliminary investigation indicated a gray Dodge Durango, operated by Cullen Michael Derr (38) of Battle Ground (WA), was traveling eastbound while towing a custom-built utility trailer when, for unknown reason, it left the roadway. The vehicle rolled multiple times and caught fire. Three occupants were ejected from the vehicle during the crash, including a 24-year-old woman, a 15-year-old male and a 9-month-old male infant. All four occupants, including Derr, were transported to a local hospital. Due to the severity of their injuries, the three passengers were later transferred to hospitals in Oregon and Washington for advanced medical care. Derr was arrested for DUII, reckless driving, reckless endangering another person (x3), assault 3 (x3), and lodged at the Umatilla County Jail. Interstate 84 was impacted for approximately one hour during the on-scene investigation.

Rescue from North Umpqua River
Douglas Co. SO release - TOKETEE, Ore. – On Friday, July 17, 2026, around 10:30 a.m., 9-1-1 dispatchers received a report of a medical aid at Toketee Falls after an individual had jumped into the water and injured himself. Rescuers from the Douglas County Sheriff's Office, Glide Rural Fire Protection District, Central Douglas Fire & Rescue and Umpqua Valley Ambulance responded to the scene. It was determined that 20-year-old Angel Antonio Ceja of Oahu Hawaii had been on a road trip with a friend and had been visiting locations where he could cliff jump while recording videos to post online. After watching numerous videos of others successfully jumping from a large log suspended approximately 60 feet above the North Umpqua River, about 200 feet upstream of Toketee Falls, Ceja decided to make the jump. When Ceja entered the water following his jump, he dislocated his right shoulder. Although he was able to pull himself from the river onto a partially submerged log and then onto a small rock shelf, he was unable to climb back to the trail. Rescuers deployed a steep-angle rescue rope system to safely raise Ceja in a rescue litter from the gorge. Once to the trail, Ceja was able to walk the remainder of the trail to a waiting ambulance. He was transported to Mercy Medical Center for treatment.

Diamond Lake Drowning
Douglas Co. SO release - DIAMOND LAKE, Ore. - On Saturday, July 18, 2026, at approximately 2:17 p.m., the Douglas County Sheriff's Office responded to Diamond Lake following a report of a person who had fallen overboard from a pontoon boat and disappeared beneath the water. The victim was identified as 71-year-old William Harry Bailey of Bethalto, Illinois, who was at Diamond Lake with family members for a reunion. Earlier in the day, the family rented a pontoon boat to spend time on the lake. Deputies learned that Bailey and his sister moved to the bow of the pontoon boat to take a photograh. As they stood at the front of the boat, the bow dipped into the water, causing the stern to rise. Both Bailey and his sister lost their balance and fell into the lake. Witnesses report Bailey pushed his sister out of the way to prevent her from falling in front of the boat. In doing so, Bailey fell directly in front of the moving pontoon, which passed over him. Bailey briefly resurfaced before going back underwater. Family members immediately began searching for Bailey and called 911. Deputies, fire personnel and other emergency responders searched the area of the last known point he was seen but were unable to immediately locate him. Divers from the Douglas County Sheriff's Office responded and were able to locate and recover Bailey's body from the lake. The Douglas County Medical Examiner's Office was notified. The Douglas County Sheriff's Office extends its deepest condolences to Mr. Bailey's family and friends during this difficult time. Assisting agencies included Diamond Lake Resort, Central Douglas Fire & Rescue, Oregon State Police, Umpqua Valley Ambulance, REACH Air Medical Services and the Oregon State Marine Board.
