Drought affects
parts of Oregon
BEND

Oregon Gov. Kate Brown
has declared a drought
emergency in seven
counties.
Oregon
Public
Broadcasting reports the
governor9s July 1 emer-
gency drought declara-
tion covers regions where
agriculture relies on
scant water: Deschutes,
Crook, and Jefferson in
Central Oregon; Douglas
and Josephine counties
in Southern Oregon; and
Gilliam and Wasco coun-
ties in the Columbia River
Gorge.
The governor 9s dec-
laration enables the state
Department of Agriculture
to seek federal aid. It also
instructs the Oregon Water
Resources Department
to <coordinate and pro-
vide assistance to water
users,= like irrigation
districts.
The city of Bend alerted
its residents to conserve
water.
Bend9s warning does not
include any new mandatory
restrictions, instead ask-
ing residents to be respon-
sible and follow specific,
existing rules, like not
watering lawns and gardens
during the hottest daytime
hours.
The city has two sources
of water: a spring high in
the Cascade mountains
and an aquifer deep under-
ground. Irrigation districts
serving farmland in Central
Oregon pull water out of the
Deschutes River. Those res-
ervoirs are at historic lows
this year.
Bend water conserva-
tion program manager Dan
Denning said having dual
sources makes the city more
resilient to drought.
We would be able to
handle our water with
one source, but we’re all
in the same basin.

<We would be able to
handle our water with one
source, but we9re all in
the same basin,= Denning
said.
