Volunteers needed for Douglas County Search and Rescue
The deadline is ap-
proaching and the Doug-
las County Sheriff ’s
Office is still seeking
dedicated members of
the community who are
willing to volunteer their
time to the Search and
Rescue Division.
Under Oregon Law, the
Sheriff of each county is
tasked with the responsi-
bility of Search and Res-
cue efforts. In Douglas
County that means the
Sheriff is responsible for
the searching for lost and
missing subjects within
the 5,000 square miles of
the county.
The kind of people
DCSR is looking for are
motivated
individuals
willing to give their pre-
cious time to help their
community. Search and
Rescue is not exclusive
to any particular type of
person or skill set.
The Douglas County
Sheriff ’s Office is looking
for individuals capable
of physical tasks ranging
from wilderness search-
ing to technical rope
rescues, to individuals
willing to help prepare
meals for search crews,
or people who want to
help maintain equipment
for searchers in the field.
If you have the desire,
the Sheriff ’s Office will
provide the training, at
no cost.
The Douglas County
Sheriff ’s Office Search
and Rescue unit is com-
prised of members of the
community from age 17
to members who are re-
tired.
Here is a list of some
of the Search and Rescue
disciplines:
• Mountain Rescue —
Rope technical and ter-
rain difficulty
• Mounted Searchers
— Searchers on horse-
State Fire Marshal mobilizes Oregon Fire Service
Gov. Kate Brown has
declared the Beachie
Creek and Lionshead
Fires in Marion County
and the Holiday Farm
Fire in Lane County as
Conflagrations.
The Beachie Creek
and Lionshead Fires
were active overnight
in the Santiam Canyon;
the Holiday Farm Fire
is active near McKenzie
Bridge.
The invocation of the
Conflagration Act by
Gov. Brown cleared the
way for the State Fire
Marshal to mobilize
firefighters and equip-
ment to assist local
resources battling the
fires.
The Office of State
Marshal’s Green Inci-
dent Management Team
has been mobilized to
the Beachie Creek Fire
and Lionshead fires and
the OSFM’s Red Inci-
dent Management Team
has been mobilized to
the Holiday Farm Fire.
As of 8 a.m. Tuesday,
four task forces from
Marion, Benton, Linn,
and Clatsop counties
are deployed with the
Green Team to support
the Santiam Canyon
communities being im-
pacted by the Beachie
Creek and Lionshead
fires.
Two task forces from
Polk and Yamhill coun-
ties are deployed with
the Red Team.
Currently,
evacua-
tions have been ordered
near both fires by local
law enforcement.
In addition to its de-
ployment of two IMTs,
Congratulations!
to our
Employee of the Month
Tara Blount
the OSFM has sent re-
sources to Klamath
County to support local
firefighting resources
who are responding to
a fire near Collier State
Park.
The predicted wind
event has impacted
much of the state. Mul-
tiple requests for struc-
tural firefighting re-
sources have been made
through the Oregon
Fire Mutual Aid System.
All
Oregonians
should monitor com-
munications
coming
from their local emer-
gency response systems
and communications
from local law enforce-
ment agencies, who are
responsible for ordering
evacuations.
The OSFM is asking
residents to keep their
fellow Oregonians and
firefighters in their
thoughts.
