Mosier Creek Fire PM Update 8/15/2020

MOSIER, Ore. – Today was a good day on the fire line. Winds were not a factor and hot spots were identified. Crews also saw visible smoke from small pockets of unburnt fuel from the interior of the fire. OSFM Operations Chief Scott Stutzman shared, “All four sides of the fire were well covered by crews and we are happy with current staffing levels for the job.”

ODF and OSFM hosted a virtual community meeting today. Both Mosier and Mid-Columbia Fire Chiefs, the Wasco County Sheriff and a Wasco County Commissioner along with an American Red Cross representative were able to share information with the community. The meeting, which was interpreted for ASL users and Spanish speakers, was recorded and is posted to the Mosier Creek Fire Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/mosiercreekfire2020/
