Archie Creek and Thielsen Fires Update October 4, 2020 Incident Commander Mike Dueitt Hours: 8 Am-8 Pm Archie Creek and Thielsen Fires Update October 4, 2020 Incident Commander Mike Dueitt Hours: 8 am-8 pm Archie Creek Fire Thielsen Fire Email: [email protected] Email: [email protected] Phone: 971-334-7674 Phone: 541-625-0687 InciWeb: https://inciweb.nwcg.gov/incident/7176/ InciWeb:https://inciweb.nwcg.gov/incident/7195/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ArchieCreekFireInfo/ Facebook: http://bit.ly/ThielsenFire Special Notes: Smoldering logs and stumps in the interior of the fire will continue to put up smoke until winter rains end the fire season. Firefighters are patrolling the fire and will extinguish any hot spots that pose a threat to containment lines. Haze from California fires may be visible again today. Areas within the fire perimeter are CLOSED to the public. Only residents and fire personnel are allowed in the area. Entry into the fire area is not only dangerous, but can endanger firefighters and their ability to do their work. Hazards include isolated hot spots and fire, heavy equipment and falling trees. Today the Southern Area Red Team will meet with Pacific Northwest Team 12 Type 2 incident management team to begin transitioning management of the Archie Creek and Thielsen Fires. In preparation of that, an incident command post is being set up in Glide as the current command post moves out of the Douglas County Fairgrounds. Tomorrow Team 12 will shadow the Red Team and on Tuesday they will assume command of the fires. Archie Creek Fire: The Archie Creek Fire is east of Roseburg in the North Umpqua corridor on state, private and federal land. It has burned 131,542 acres and is 86 percent contained. There are currently 605 personnel assigned. The cause of the fire is under investigation. Personnel and Equipment: 16 Type 2 hand crews, 2 helicopters, 1 fixed wing air attack, 23 engines, 14 bulldozers, 9 water tenders, 3 masticators, 2 skidgines, 11 excavators, 6 chippers and 2 dump trucks. The Southern Area Red Team continues to manage Archie Creek Fire operations on Umpqua National Forest lands and Oregon and California (O&C) lands managed by the Bureau of Land Management, while a Douglas Forest Protective Association local Type 3 incident management team, with Incident Commander Paul Ritter, continues to mop up and patrol firelines on private lands. The teams work collaboratively to protect homes, timber and other values. Fire behavior will be minimal today as smoldering in stumps, dead trees and logs continues. Creeping fire may occur in areas where trees have dropped their needles or leaves, but no fire perimeter growth is expected. Firefighters will continue mopping up some areas, especially where there are indirect firelines, containment lines set back from the fire’s edge where burnable vegetation is between the fire and containment line. This is in the Zig Zag Creek and Trapper Creek areas on the northeast flank of the fire and steep areas in the southeast and south flanks. Firefighters are mostly transitioning to patrol. The largest remaining task is removing hazard trees along Rock Creek Road, Wright Creek and the Cool Water area to make these areas safe. As work is completed, firefighters and equipment are being released from the fire. Crews will continue with suppression repair on Umpqua National Forest and Bureau of Land Management- managed lands. Chippers, excavators and dump trucks are repairing damage caused by fighting the fire, not for damage from the fire itself. Examples of suppression repair work in progress are installing water bars on firelines for proper drainage, especially on steep slopes. Crews are chipping brush along drainage ditches and hauling out trees felled to construct firelines. Suppression repair work is done in concert with agency resource advisors to meet resource protection standards. Thielsen Fire: The Thielsen Fire is located five miles north of Crater Lake near Diamond Lake Resort. It has burned 9,975 acres and is 71 percent contained. There are currently 192 personnel assigned. Cause: unknown. Personnel and Equipment: 3 Type 2 hand crews, 1 helicopter, 4 engines, 3 bulldozers, 6 water tenders, 2 skidders, 1 masticator, 4 excavators, 1 tub grinder and 5 dump trucks. The fire continues to smolder in large stumps and deep duff with some isolated single tree torching. Yesterday fire crews conducted mop up and suppression repairs along containment lines. Today, mop up and suppression repairs will continue, and firefighters will continue improving a shaded fuel break along Forest Service Road 60.

  • Radio Telemetry of Steelhead in the North Umpqua River a RADIO TELEMETRY STUDY of STEELHEAD in the NORTH UMPQUA RIVER BASIN 1998-2001
    Radio Telemetry of Steelhead in the North Umpqua River A RADIO TELEMETRY STUDY OF STEELHEAD IN THE NORTH UMPQUA RIVER BASIN 1998-2001 Dave Loomis John Raasch Rod Thompson Bob Ryan Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife Umpqua Watershed District 4192 North Umpqua Highway Roseburg, Oregon 97470 December 2003 A radio telemetry study of Steelhead in the North Umpqua River Basin By Dave Loomis, John Raasch, Rod Thompson and Bob Ryan INTRODUCTION The North Umpqua steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) represents one of the few remaining native anadromous fish populations in Oregon still at a relatively healthy level. The sustainability of the North Umpqua steelhead population and its' habitat is a very high priority. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) develops, on a continuing basis, practices designed to ensure the health and viability of this population. However, continued management success depends critically on the availability of data necessary for a detailed understanding of relevant life history issues. To address these data needs, ODFW began a radio-telemetry study of North Umpqua steelhead in June of 1998. Tagging at Winchester dam was terminated 10/26/00 but monitoring continued until the end of May 2001. This study has provided detailed information on movement patterns of adult steelhead in the basin at a level that is available in no other way and is the most comprehensive project of its type for the Umpqua Basin. A radio tagging study whose scope was limited to the Steamboat Creek subbasin was carried out previously (Wroble, 1990). Also, a previous study of temperature trends in that subbasin is of interest (Hostetler, 1991).

REA provides the BLM current authority to establish, modify, charge, and collect recreation fees at Federal recreational lands and waters. Section 804 of REA addresses the minimum public outreach requirements that an agency must consider when developing or changing recreation fees. This outreach process includes the involvement of a Resource Advisory Council (RAC). RACs provide recommendations to agency officials on matters including, but not limited to: Implementing or eliminating fees; Expanding or limiting the recreation fee program; and Implementing fee level changes. The fee analysis portion of this business plan was based on a comparative review of fees charged elsewhere and by other public agencies within the geographic area of the Whittaker Creek Recreation Site that provide similar services. Based on the comparative fee analysis, this business plan proposes to revise the day-use and camping fee for the Whittaker Creek Recreation Site.

  • The Distribution of Geologic and Artifact Obsidian from the Silver Lake/Sycan Marsh
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Jennifer J. Thatcher for the degree of Master of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies in Anthropology. Anthropology, and Geography presented on December 8. 2000. Title: The Distribution of Geologic and Artifact Obsidian from the Silver Lake/Sycan Marsh Geochemical Source Group. South-Central Oregon. Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: J. Roth Geochemical characterization methods are commonly used in the reconstruction of prehistoric raw material use and procurement systems. Trace element studies of lithic source material and artifacts, specifically those made of obsidian, can reveal important information about the environmental and cultural factors which influence the prehistoric distribution of raw material. The current investigation uses geochemical characterization methods and data to document and evaluate the distribution of geologic and artifact obsidian that originates from the Silver Lake/Sycan Marsh (SL/SM) obsidian source. This large and prehistorically significant source is located in western Lake County, Oregon. Few source descriptions or artifact distribution studies exist for SL/SM obsidian. However, over the past decade, a significant increase in the use of geochemical characterization methods has generated a wealth of data for Oregon obsidian sources. This thesis synthesizes the results of the geochemical characterization analysis of 392 geologic obsidian specimens collected from the SL/SM source area and 1,938 SL/SM obsidian artifacts recovered from over 200 archaeological sites in Oregon, Washington and California. The artifact analytical data were derived from previously characterized artifact collections compiled and archived in an extensive database. A subset of artifacts were characterized for the purpose of this study. Based on the results of geochemical analysis of the geologic material, two distinct source boundaries are defined for the SL/SM geochemical source.
