  • Willamette Basin Review Feasibility Study

    Willamette Basin Review Feasibility Study

    US Army Corps of Engineers Portland District Willamette Basin Review Feasibility Study DRAFT Integrated Feasibility Report and Environmental Assessment November 2017 Willamette Basin Review Feasibility Study Executive Summary The Willamette River basin is located entirely within the state of Oregon, beginning south of Cottage Grove, and extending approximately 187 miles to the north where the Willamette River flows into the Columbia River. The basin is more than 11,200 square miles, averages 75 miles in width, and encompasses approximately 12 percent of the total area of the state (Figure ES-1). Within the watershed are most of the state’s population (nearly 70 percent), larger cities, and major industries. The basin also contains some of Oregon’s most productive agricultural lands and supports nationally and regionally important fish and wildlife species. Thirteen of Oregon’s thirty-six counties intersect or lie within the boundary of the Willamette River basin. Through a series of Flood Control Acts the U.S. Congress authorized the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) to construct, operate, and maintain thirteen major dams1 in the Willamette River basin. Collectively, these dams, reservoirs and associated infrastructure are known as the Willamette Valley Project (WVP). With a combined conservation storage capacity of approximately 1,590,000 acre-feet, the WVP is capable of providing important benefits for flood damage reduction, navigation, hydropower, irrigation, municipal and industrial water supply, flow augmentation for pollution abatement and improved conditions for fish and wildlife, and recreation. Feasibility Study History The Willamette Basin Review Feasibility Study began in 1996 to investigate future Willamette River basin water demand.

  • Sumpter Valley Railroad Interpretive Site

    Sumpter Valley Railroad Interpretive Site

    Welcome to the Dixie Pass, part of the Sumpter Valley Railroad ca. 1890 to 1947 Introduction • The Oregon Lumber Company in agreement with Union Pacific built the Sumpter Valley Railway in 1890 as a way to access rich tracts of timber southwest of Baker City. • The Railway replaced wagons as the primary transportation to McEwan, Sumpter, Whitney, Austin and Bates, Oregon, until the advent of trucking. • In 1987 seven portions of the Railway were listed on the National Register of Historic Places, as the Sumpter Valley Railway Historic District. • One portion, Dixie Pass, the newest addition to the Sumpter Valley Railway, was built ca. 1910 as part of an attempt to finish the Nevada-California-Oregon Railroad. This route was important to John Day Valley ranchers for transportation of their livestock to market. You are following in the footsteps of Sumpter Valley interpretive trail at the Malheur National Forest. First Stop: Sumpter Valley Railway History American Indians first created trails through these mountains hundreds of years ago. Later, in 1825, Hudson-Bay Fur company trappers, lead by Peter Skene Ogden, crossed this very pass. In 1862 more people made this difficult journey by stagecoach and freight wagon in search of gold. Gold prospectors were followed by farmers, ranchers and others. In 1890, David Eccles, a prominent businessman from Utah, helped create the Oregon Lumber Company and plans were set in motion to build a railroad to haul logs to a sawmill in Baker city. The first 22 miles of track ran through the mountains to McEwen. By 1910 the rails were over 80 miles long, reached all the way to Prairie City, and hauled logs, livestock, people, and other freight.
  • WIN Quarterly: Summer 2020

    WIN Quarterly: Summer 2020

    WIN Quarterly: Summer 2020 Greetings, friends and colleagues, I hope you all had a relaxing weekend. It sure felt a little different, this year! The relative calm of the holiday gave me a chance to think about what Independence Day means to me, how that may differ from others and a chance to finish working through my thoughts about Juneteenth. We just declared Juneteenth a holiday at CPRCD and, considering current events, it felt weird to take a day off for the holiday. Ultimately, I did what many privileged white folk do and I donated some money to a charity and went about my day (HBCU Foundation). I instantly felt guilty and knew I needed to do better, so I'm working on that. When congress passed the Lee Resolution on July 2nd, 1776 I would bet that few foresaw another seven years of war with the British. Similarly, I can only imagine that people of color in the United States did not anticipate their fight to continue for another 155 years after Major General Gordon Granger read General Order No. 3 in Galveston on June 19th, 1865. For my whole life, I've celebrated an independence from a "tyranny" I never experienced. What I've really celebrated was my privilege. In fact, I would've been on the other side as my great grandfathers and great uncles were generals for the British Army; one of the former leading numerous decimations of the Americans during the Revolutionary War until being crushed at Yorktown; one of the latter leading the British to victory at the Battle of Alexandria.

    This Windswept Oregon Retreat Offers Adventure at the Edge of the World

    TRAVEL This Windswept Oregon Retreat Offers Adventure at the Edge of the World by Michaela Trimble 02/26/2019 Oregon locals have long known Pacific City as the state’s under-the-radar basecamp for outdoor pursuits. In the Pacific Northwest and beyond, this once sleepy beach town is receiving quite the buzz, thanks to the recent opening of Headlands Coastal Lodge & Spa, a 33-room lodge with 18 spacious oceanfront cottages. Each features cast-iron soaking tubs, custom-made racks for surfboards and bikes, and private outdoor balconies and patios with unobstructed views of one of the region’s most celebrated natural formations: the 327-foot-tall Haystack Rock. This oasis in Tillamook County is tucked between a trifecta of natural sites—Cape Kiwanda State Natural Area, Bob Straub State Park, and Nestucca Bay National Wildlife Refuge. To get to Headlands Lodge, venture two hours west of Portland or 90 minutes south of the bustling resort town of Cannon Beach, right along the edge of Three Capes Scenic Drive. Headlands Lodge’s restaurant, Meridian When you’re not dining on fresh oysters sourced from nearby Netarts Bay at the outpost’s signature restaurant, Meridian, or reveling in relaxation during an intensive deep-tissue massage and replenishing seaweed wrap at the lodge’s own spa, Tidepools, it’s easy to gain swift access to the rugged natural beauty of Oregon’s coast—high capes, sandy spits, and protected bays included. When you enlist one of Headlands on-staff adventure concierges to craft the perfect outdoor experiences for you, exclusive excursions are in reach, from tucked-away beach bonfires to scenic hikes.
