Tamaño aproximado: 193,573 ac.
Contencion: 80%            
Total de Personal: 52
Fecha de Inicio: 16 de Agosto, 2020
Causa: Bajo Investigacion

Información General: Esta será la última actualización del incendio Beachie Creek.  Las páginas de Inciweb y de Facebook que corresponden al incendio serán actualizadas durante los próximos días mientras el equipo tipo 3 concluye su asignación, pero no serán mantenidas durante el invierno.  Informacion será proporcionada en las paginas del bosque nacional Willamette y la Gerencia de Tierras Públicas del distrito del noroeste de Oregón o en otras plataformas de redes sociales cuando es necesario.  Para más información, visite Inciweb usando el código QR o la página web: https://inciweb.nwcg.gov/incident/7001/.

El trabajo de reparación sigue siendo el enfoque de los bomberos.  Esto incluye excavadores reparando las líneas de contención, las cuales ya están terminando en el incendio Beachie Creek.  Todavía están astillando arboles a lo largo de la carretera 46.  Equipos siguen progresando hacia Brietenbush, pero la carretera esta cerrada para la seguridad de los conductores y trabajadores. 

No se han reportado casos de COVID-19 en el puesto de comando para el incendio Beachie Creek y el personal sigue manteniendo los protocolos de COVID.  Estos protocolos incluyen lavarse las manos, usar mascarillas y mantener 6 pies de distancia. 

“Nuestro enfoque son medidas de prevención. Durante la transición de cada equipo hemos mantenido la vigilancia.  Cuando estamos en contacto con el público hemos mantenido distancia y hemos pedido lo mismo del público.” -Zebron Watts, Líder Medico de Unidad. 

Se han quitado todos los niveles de evacuación en los condados de Clackamas, Marion y Linn.

Clima y Comportamiento del Fuego: Hoy el clima se mantendrá nublado y frio con 10% probabilidad de lluvia. Un frente rio débil presentara condiciones más secas con niveles de humedad alrededor de 60-70%.  El clima hoy será seco y nublado, con temperaturas alrededor de 58 a 63 °F (14-18 °C).  Habrá leve viento del oeste. La actividad del fuego sigue siendo mínima.

Aunque la actividad del fuego es mínima todavía hay peligros.  Las calles recientemente abiertas, sin pavimentar están lodosas y susceptibles a caídas de piedras a causa de la erosión por el incendio y el viento.  Las áreas quemadas siguen cerradas porque puede haber hoyos de escombros que guardan brasas calientes que humean por largo tiempo después de un incendio, y arboles débiles que pueden caer y causar danos y muerte.  El publico debe buscar actualizaciones de clausuras en los recursos listados:

•    Bosque Nacional Willamette  www.fs.usda.gov/alerts/willamette/alerts-notices/?aid=61574   
•    Gerencia de Tierras Publicas (Bureau of Land Management) www.blm.gov/programs/public-safety-and-fire/fire-and-aviation/regional-info/oregon-washington/fire-restrictions.
