Lincoln City sewage release notification

City of Lincoln City
From December 5, 2023 at 2:00p.m. to December 6, 2023 at 2:00a.m., diluted sewage
was released to Devils Lake at the Holmes Road Boat Ramp.

According to a press release from the city the release was due to
heavy rain fall over a long period of time.

The estimated amount of overflow is 3,600 gallons.

The Holmes Road sewer pump station and Public Works’ crews worked continuously, however could not keep up with the non-stop heavy rainfall.

This year’s adopted budget includes funding to upgrade the Holmes Road Pump Station and increase its pumping capacity.

“We are currently in the design phase of this project. In addition, the City is currently in the design and/or construction phases for several other projects that will reduce our current Inflow and Infiltration (I&I) rates (rain water that enters the sewer collection system piping).”

The City notified appropriate personnel at Oregon Emergency Response and the
Department of Environmental Quality. The affected area is posted and we have notified
the Media.

Heavy rains from the predicted “Atmospheric River” have brought local waterways, lakes and estuaries to the point of overflow Tuesday.

A quick drive around the area shows dramatic water level rise. Places like the Siletz river have turned to a torrent of brown as churning waters mix with mud as it heads to the Pacific ocean.

State park visitors can book same day reservations beginning in 2024

State park visitors can book same day reservations beginning in 2024

oregon state parksVisitors hoping to camp last minute will soon have the chance to view and book same-day campsite openings online statewide starting January 1, 2024.

Previously, most sites required booking 24 hours or more in advance of arrival when reserving online. Same-day online reservations started as a pilot project at two coastal parks and expanded last summer to all 17 coastal state park campgrounds.

“Same-day reservations at the coast gave those traveling the peace of mind that there was a place ready for them when they arrived,” said Coastal Region Director Dennis Comfort.

When the program expands statewide, it will include a total of 40 park campgrounds across Oregon. Some parks switch tent and RV campsites to first-come-first served during the winter and those sites will start offering same-day online reservations in the spring. Visitors can check park webpages for seasonal information on specific parks at https://stateparks.oregon.gov/

Eleven campgrounds will remain first-come-first served year-round: Jackson F. Kimball, Goose Lake, Bates, Cascara, Catherine Creek, Hilgard Junction, Jasper Point (except for the cabin), Minam, Red Bridge, Smith Rock and Ukiah-Dale.

According to a State Parks spokesperson, The goal of same-day online reservations is to offer campers the flexibility to travel last minute when sites are available while giving them the security of knowing they have a site when they arrive. Same-day online reservations also have the potential to give park staff more time to offer interpretive opportunities, improve park facilities and increase time interacting with visitors. ”

“The transition to same-day reservations at Nehalem Bay State Park was nearly seamless and has been generally well received by guests,” said Park Manager Ben Cox.
