EWEB, Trout Mountain Forestry enacting variable retention harvest on the Leaburg Forest as part of providing long term structural diversity and habitat opportunities
EWEB staff stand by their initial assessment that the spill will have no adverse impacts to drinking water quality at this time.
Emergency response crews worked quickly after a tanker truck carrying an estimated 275 gallons of diesel and between 5,000 and 7,000 gallons of milk crashed this morning near Belknap Springs, releasing diesel and milk into a creek that flows into the Upper McKenzie River.
Multi-agency effort will restore habitat, improve water quality, strengthen river resilience
EWEB assures the McKenzie River is an excellent source for Eugene’s drinking water – even as the watershed continues to recover from the 2020 Holiday Farm Fire.
