DALLAS, Oregon (December, 6th, 2023)
Due to over 2 inches of rainfall in the past 24 hours and soils already saturated by previous rainfall, the City of Dallas Water Reclamation Facility began overflowing today into Rickreall Creek at 7:15 a.m. The incident has been reported to the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality and facility staff are closely monitoring stream conditions. It is unknown when the overflow condition will cease at the facility as it will be dependent on the continuing rain event.
Please note, the Rickreall Creek Trail is closed between the Barberry and Hawthorne trailheads due to high water.
For questions or concerns, please call the City of Dallas Public Works Department at 503-831-3559.
