Four state task forces sent to help battle 81,000-acre Cow Valley Fire in Malheur County; Highway 26 reopens

(Update: Friday evening update: fire estimated at 81,000 acres)

BROGAN, Ore. (KTVZ) – A day-old wildfire near the small Malheur County town of Brogan grew Friday to about 81,000 acres amid a fierce air and ground battle, including a Conflagration Act call-up of four state structural-protection task forces, but U.S. Highway 26 was able to reopen nearby.

Here's Friday evening's update from the BLM's Vale District:

VALE, Ore. – Equipment operators worked through the night Thursday to establish a dozer line to protect the town of Brogan from the Cow Valley Fire, which is burning on private property and Vale Bureau of Land Management-administered lands 9 miles east of Ironside.

Firefighters reinforced the dozer line with a tactical firing operation between Malheur Reservoir and Brogan. Four Oregon State Fire Marshal’s Office task forces are working to protect 45 homes and create defensible space around private property from Brogan southward. The agency’s Red Incident Management Team will join the effort Saturday morning.

Crews from Vale BLM are working steadily to build and reinforce lines on the south side of the highway where the fire is burning most actively. A dozer line to the top of Juniper Mountain was completed today, and a Snake River Valley hand crew will begin reinforcing that line Saturday.

The fire was estimated to have reached 81,000 acres Friday evening. A total of 120 personnel are assigned to the fire, utilizing 9 engines, one hand crew, 5 dozers, 2 water tenders and 16 aircraft. A Hotshot crew and two helicopters will join the operation Saturday.

Hwy. 26 reopened Friday afternoon. Motorists should watch for slower moving equipment and firefighters in the roadway and avoid the area between Ironside and Brogan if possible.

Northwest 6 Complex Incident Management Team will in-brief Saturday morning, spend the day with Vale BLM fire personnel to familiarize themselves with the operation, and assume command of the fire Sunday morning. Bringing in a team gives Vale BLM access to additional resources and frees up local resources to manage other fires on the district and respond to new starts.

The Bonita Road Fire 9 miles southeast of Ironside, moved very little today and is estimated at 2,727 acres in size. Crews have mopped up 15 feet off the completed dozer line, with 20 percent containment.

Both fires have been determined to be human-caused and the Bureau of Land Management, Malheur County Sheriff’s Office and Oregon State Police are investigating.

A Level 1 – Be Ready evacuation notification remains in place for the Brogan and Brogan Canyon areas. For the most current evacuation information, visit the Malheur County Sheriff’s Office Facebook page .

Updated information can be found at Orvad Cow Valley Fire Information | InciWeb ( wildfire.gov ) and on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100069245917855 .

"The fire is still burning actively, and we'd appreciate people avoiding the area," Vale District BLM Public Affairs Specialist Larisa Bogardus told NewsChannel 21 Friday afternoon.

She said the Malheur County Sheriff's Office has issued a Level 1 BE READY evacuation notice in the area.

A 23-mile stretch of U.S. Highway 26 was closed between Ironside and Brogan Thursday and for much of Friday, but reopened Friday afternoon.

"Crews will monitor the area through the night," officials said in an update. "Please drive with caution and check TripCheck for the latest road status updates."

Governor Kotek invokes Emergency Conflagration Act in response to Cow Valley Fire

Cow Valley Fire burning in Malheur County, northwest of Vale

Salem, OR — Governor Tina Kotek invoked the Emergency Conflagration Act on the morning of July 12, 2024, in response to a wildfire in Malheur County: the Cow Valley Fire. The resources necessary for protecting life and property from the Cow Valley Fire are beyond local capabilities. Assistance with life, safety, and structural fire protection was requested by the Malheur County Fire Defense Board and the state fire marshal concurred with that request.

“Wildfire season is in full swing, with fires active across Oregon and concerning weather conditions for this upcoming weekend,” Governor Kotek said. “I am authorizing an emergency conflagration to allow additional resources to fight the Cow Valley Fire in Malheur County. The majority of our state’s wildfires are human-caused. I urge all Oregonians to take extreme precautions, particularly with lightning in the forecast for this weekend. It is incumbent on all of us to keep Oregon green and protect our communities.”

A link to Executive Order 24-12 can be found  here .

Following ORS 476.510-476.610, Governor Kotek determined that a threat to life, safety, and property exists due to the fire, and the threat exceeds the firefighting capabilities of local firefighting personnel and equipment. The governor’s declaration cleared the way for the state fire marshal to mobilize resources through the Oregon Fire Mutual Aid System to support local fire service agencies on scene. This conflagration is declared only for the Cow Valley Fire threatening structures in Malheur County.

The Oregon State Fire Marshal’s Red Incident Management Team was mobilized. Along with the federal partners, our rangeland fire protective associations and local responding agencies, two structural task forces were mobilized Thursday night through the agency’s Immediate Response tool. Two more task forces from Lane and Marion counties were mobilized. The Red Incident Management Team will be in unified command with Northwest Team 6, a federal complex incident management team.

For the latest on evacuations, please follow the  Malheur County Sheriff’s Office .

Here's the Friday morning release on the fire by the Oregon State Fire Marshal's Office:

Cow Valley Fire in Malheur County declared a conflagration, OSFM sending additional resources Oregon State Fire Marshal - 07/12/24 10:12 AM

SALEM, Ore. (KTVZ)  – The Oregon State Fire Marshal is mobilizing several task forces and its Red Incident Management Team to the Cow Valley Fire in Malheur County to protect people and property. Overnight Thursday, the agency sent two task forces from Umatilla and Multnomah counties through Immediate Response. These task forces will be joined by two others from Lane and Marion counties.  

“The weather conditions we are seeing across Oregon are extremely concerning. The forecast over the weekend for much of Eastern Oregon will not be doing us any favors,” Oregon State Fire Marshal Mariana Ruiz-Temple said. “The state has seen numerous human-caused wildfires over the last few weeks, and I am asking everyone to be careful and aware of the extreme fire conditions, especially with lightning in the forecast.” 

According to the Vale Bureau of Land Management District, the fire is being pushed by gusty winds, triple-digit temperatures, and low humidity, causing substantial fire growth in the last 12 hours. An infrared flight is happening this morning to get an accurate size of the fire. That information will be shared once it is available. Weather for this fire is expected to be challenging over the next few days with a Fire Weather Watch in place by the National Weather Service for abundant lightning and wind this weekend.  

The OSFM’s Red Incident Management Team will be in unified command with Northwest Team 6, a federal complex incident management team.  

Malheur County Emergency Management and the Red Cross have a shelter in Girvin Hall at the Malheur County Fairgrounds. Those who have questions about the shelter should call 208-519-6675. 

Evacuation notices will be issued by the  Malheur County Sheriff’s Office . A  Facebook page  is set up to share fire information. 

On Friday morning, Oregon Governor Tina Kotek invoked the Emergency Conflagration Act for the fire which allows the state fire marshal to mobilize state resources to protect life and property. 

Following ORS 476.510-476.610, Governor Kotek determined that threats to life, safety, and property exist because of the fire, and the threats exceed the capabilities of local firefighting personnel and equipment.  

ODOT shared photos on TripCheck of the Cow Valley Fire on its TripCheck page and said the highway was expected to remain closed through the night. Crews will assess the situation and provide an update in the morning.

KTVB in Boise reported 30-50 homes in Brogan are threatened, and power needed to be shut off to some due to the fire’s proximity to power lines.

The Malheur County Sheriff’s Office said on Facebook the Cow Valley Fire had changed direction and was growing quickly to the east, toward the town of Brogan, population of about 90. It was burning on both sides of the highway.

It was one of three large new blazes in the area, according to Watch Duty , the others being the day-old, 4,504-acre Huntington Mutual Aid Fire in Baker County, prompting evacuations and alerts in the Huntington area and Farewell Bend State Park, and the 1,867-acre Bonita Road Fire, also in Malheur County, reported early Thursday morning.

A late Thursday night news release from Vale District BLM:

Cow Valley Fire update for Thursday, July 11

VALE, Ore. –  The Cow Valley Fire is burning on private and public lands 9 miles east of Ironside, Ore., on both sides of Hwy. 26. At 9 p.m. MT Thursday, it was estimated to be 20,000 acres in size.

Hwy. 26 is closed between Ironside (milepost 231) and Brogan (milepost 254). Motorists are advised to avoid the area and check TripCheck.com for the latest road status updates.

The fire is moving toward Malheur Reservoir and is threatening 30 to 50 homes in the Brogan area. Malheur County Sheriff’s Office is advising residents to prepare themselves in case an evacuation order is issued. For the most current evacuation information, go to the sheriff’s office Facebook page.

Vale Rural and Ontario Fire Departments are providing structure protection. Two abandoned structures have been destroyed. An Oregon State Fire Marshal’s Office Task Force is mobilizing.

Earlier in the day, power was shut off to approximately 50 homes due to the fire threatening nearby power lines. RFPA personnel were helping ranchers move cattle out of the path of the fire.

Ironside Rural Fire Protection Association was first on scene when the fire was reported on private property early Thursday. It has since crossed onto Vale Bureau of Land Management and Oregon Department of Forestry-protected lands.

At one point, 16 aircraft were assigned to the fire, dropping water and retardant throughout the day. Seven engines and four dozers were battling the blaze on the ground, as were firefighters from Vale and Burnt River RFPAs and Sand Hollow Fire District.

A second fire was reported two hours earlier in the same area. The Bonita Road Fire is burning 9 miles southeast of Ironside, Ore., on the south side of Hwy. 26. It was last estimated to be 1,837 acres.

The cause of both fires is under investigation.

Oregon State Fire Marshal sends two task forces to Cow Valley Fire (Photo) Oregon State Fire Marshal - 07/11/24 9:20 PM

SALEM, Ore.  – A fast-moving wildfire Thursday evening in Malheur County prompted the Oregon State Fire Marshal to mobilize two structural task forces to the Cow Valley Fire burning near the town of Brogan. The task forces from Umatilla and Multnomah counties are being sent through Immediate Response, a tool the state fire marshal uses to mobilize task forces outside of a conflagration. 

“The east side of the state has faced challenging fire conditions over the last week. The Cow Valley Fire is being pushed by gusty winds and low humidity,” Oregon State Fire Marshal Mariana Ruiz-Temple said. “We are using an essential tool and the power of the Oregon Fire Mutual Aid System to provide added resources to the Cow Valley Fire. Firefighters funded through the 2024 Wildfire Season Staffing Grant allowed a quicker response for the local agencies.”

The fire is rapidly changing and estimated to be about 16,000 acres, according to the Vale Bureau of Land Management District and threatening 30 to 50 homes. 

According to the Malheur County Sheriff’s Office, the Cow Valley Fire changed direction early Thursday evening and headed east toward the town quickly. The sheriff’s office is advising those in Brogan and the surrounding areas to be prepared to leave their home if an evacuation order is made. Follow the  Malheur County Sheriff’s Office  for information about evacuations. 

The Oregon Department of Transportation closed a stretch of Highway 26 in the area of the fire. The agency says the highway is expected to remain closed through the night. 

The Umatilla County task force is made up of local fire agencies from Umatilla, Baker, Gilliam, Morrow, and Union counties. 

The task force from Multnomah County was previously assigned to the Larch Creek Fire. The Oregon State Fire Marshal will continue to monitor the fire and is ready to provide more support if needed.

About Immediate Response Immediate Response is made possible through the OSFM’s Response Ready Oregon program created through Oregon’s wildfire omnibus bill, Senate Bill 762, signed into law in 2021.

Oregon road conditions dangerous even as weather stabilizes, ODOT says

M ost of Oregon likely won’t see new snow or freezing rain for a couple of days, but drivers should still stay home if possible as crews work to clear snow, ice and downed tree limbs that litter the state’s roads following a major winter storm.

The Oregon Department of Transportation on Sunday morning said crews were out in full force working to clean up roads and get them open, but they will face challenges doing so. ODOT spokesperson Kacey Davey said crews were plowing roads and putting sand down where they can, but Davey said that de-icer and salt don’t work well when it’s 20 degrees or colder.

Davey said people should stay home unless they absolutely have to drive, and urged those who do go out to avoid dangerous behavior, such as driving over downed power lines or trying to pass snow plows. So far, she said, about a dozen ODOT snow plows have been struck by other cars while out on the roads. Those who need to drive should consult TripCheck for highway conditions.

Eastbound U.S. 26 remains closed from the Oregon Zoo to the Vista Ridge tunnel due to downed trees and damaged power lines. Oregon 224 is closed west of the small Clackamas County community of Barton.

Across the state, conditions remain challenging. The Columbia Gorge is cold and windy with spots of snow and ice. Davey said conditions were “relatively stable,” and that crews had spent the night grading the road and sanding it. But once temperatures increase, she said, the salt will activate and turn the ice to slush. The rest of Interstate 84 has some severe weather hazards, including through Hermiston and Pendleton.

Most of the Willamette Valley, including Corvallis, Albany and Eugene, are struggling with icy roads and very cold temperatures. Oregon 99 is closed south of Eugene due to downed trees.

Davey said several coastal highways are also closed due to hundreds of downed trees, and it may take days to reopen those roads.

ODOT has now removed a “conditional closure” on the Santiam Pass between Salem and Bend, meaning that drivers were required to have chains to use the pass.

And parts of southwestern Oregon could see flooding as temperatures increase. Coos County is under a flood warning. Drivers could see high water and debris on valley and coastal roadways.

As ODOT has struggled with staffing challenges, Davey said a recent $19 million infusion from the state Legislature helped the agency during this storm — allowing it to authorize overtime for staff and keep them out on the roads longer. But she said that in widespread storms such as this one, ODOT usually shifts crews to where they’re most needed in the state. This year, they haven’t been able to do that, she said. And they still have unfilled positions.

“We do need to address structural revenue issues moving forward so we can hire more staff in the future,” Davey said. “But right now what we have is all hands on deck, and crews putting in extra time on the roads.”

In the coming days, Davey said people should stay off the roads unless they must travel, and she said people should keep emergency kits in their cars even if they’re just going across town. Drivers should have snacks, warm clothing and water in the car, and never leave home without a full charge or a full tank of gas. Drivers should also carry chains and make sure they know how to use them .

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .
