The containment level for the Mosier Creek Fire was raised to 75% Tuesday, and the Wasco County Sheriff’s Office announced on Monday that all Level 3 “Go Now” evacuation areas have been downgraded to Level 2 “Be Set.” Previous Level 2 areas dropped to Level 1 “Be Ready,” and previous Level 1 areas had their advisories lifted. Fire officials are asking the general public to avoid the area burned by the fire unless absolutely necessary as there will be ongoing firefighting traffic. Some roads are restricted to local access only. Fire-weakened trees and burned roots covered by dust or ash might also still be hot enough to cause harm. Mop-up work continues Tuesday. On Wednesday, ODF’s Incident Management Team 1 will transfer command of the fire back to The Dalles Unit of ODF. Several local resources will continue to patrol and monitor the fire. People may see occasional smoke from the interior of the fire. The Oregon State Fire Marshal’s structural Task Forces demobilized yesterday and returned structure responsibilities to local fire authorities. Their final assessment: 8 residences were destroyed along with 28 other structures. Fire size remains 985 acres. Oregon Governor Kate Brown on Monday visited the site of the Mosier Creek Fire, was briefed on its status, visited a fire line and met with a family whose home was destroyed.
