Monday Morning Evacuation Level Update New Information
This morning, September 21st, 2020, at 8:00 a.m., the five mile section of Highway 22 from North Fork Rd to Mill City will be reduced from a level 3 area to a level 2.
As level 3 areas are reduced to level 2, we want to remind community members they are permitted to return to the area, though they should remain prepared to evacuate should conditions change.

Prior to reopening access to county roadways, assessments of culverts, bridges, and retaining walls along roadway systems are being conducted.
