As the Durkee Fire continues to spread, Malheur County authorities Saturday afternoon ordered the immediate evacuation of an area roughly from Willowcreek to near Vale east of U.S. Highway 26 and extending nearly to Ontario.
The Malheur County Emergency Management Department at about 2 p.m. Saturday, July 20, ordered a Level 3 evacuation, describing the area affected as from 10th Avenue East to Vale around Foothill Drive “to Heinz Blvd to Jacobsen Gulch Road.”
Officials did not release new evacuation maps with the order.
