Fraud Amid Wildfire Recovery in Oregon
News Release from Oregon Department of Emergency Management (OEM) - SALEM, Ore. — As Oregon communities respond to widespread damage from the 2026 wildfires the Oregon Department of Emergency Management (OEM) is urging residents to stay cautious and informed to avoid falling victim to fraudulent schemes, particularly those involving online fundraising platforms. When disasters strike, Oregonians come together to support neighbors and communities. Unfortunately, scammers may try to exploit that generosity by creating fake fundraising campaigns or misrepresenting their intentions. Fraud attempts may come via phone calls, mail, email, text messages, or even in?person visits. To help protect yourself and your donations, OEM offers the following guidance - Double Check Your Charitable Donations: Verify the campaign’s authenticity: Only donate to fundraisers created by people or organizations you know and trust. Look for detailed, transparent information about how funds will be used. You can verify charitable organizations on the Oregon Department of Justice Charitable Activities page. Check for secure websites: Ensure the fundraising platform uses a secure connection (“https://” and a padlock icon). Avoid clicking suspicious links shared by email or social media. Be cautious with personal information: Never share sensitive details like Social Security numbers or financial data with unverified individuals or groups. Monitor for identity theft: Check your credit report regularly for unfamiliar accounts or changes. If you suspect identity theft, file a complaint at IdentityTheft.gov and consider freezing your credit accounts. Report suspected fraud: If you believe a fundraising campaign or donation request is fraudulent, contact the Oregon Department of Justice Consumer Protection Hotline at 1?877?877?9392 or visit OregonConsumer.gov. Protect your donations: Avoid cash. Use checks or credit cards to maintain a secure, trackable record. Sign up for DOJ Scam Alerts through the Oregon Department of Justice Scam Alert Network. Avoid Contractor Scams During Wildfire Cleanup and Repairs: As residents begin debris removal, structural assessments, and home repairs, fraudulent contractors may target those seeking quick assistance. Keep these tips in mind: Research contractors thoroughly: Ensure the contractor is licensed, bonded, and insured. Check reviews and references through trusted sources such as the Oregon Construction Contractors Board. Get written estimates: Obtain multiple detailed, written estimates. Avoid contractors who demand large upfront payments or offer unusually low prices. Avoid high?pressure sales tactics: Take time to review contracts and make informed decisions. Never pay in cash: Use checks or credit cards to maintain a paper trail and added security. Beware of door?to?door solicitations: Scammers may approach residents with unsolicited “fire recovery” offers. Always verify credentials and legitimacy. Key Fraud Prevention Reminders: Public aid is free: There are no costs to apply for disaster assistance or participate in inspections. Verify government workers: Inspectors and officials will always carry identification and will never request or accept money. Trust your instincts: If something seems off, contact law enforcement or your local emergency management office to confirm the validity of claims. Follow trusted information sources: Monitor local media outlets and official state and county emergency management channels for accurate updates. Nonprofit Organizations Collecting Monetary Donations to Support Oregon Disaster Response: Financial gifts remain the most effective way to assist people affected by wildfires. They just take a bit more diligence. Monetary donations allow disaster response organizations to purchase exactly what is needed, when and where it is needed. People seeking trusted organizations currently involved in wildfire response can dial 211 or visit 211info.org. Oregon Voluntary Organizations Active in Disaster: Oregon Community Foundation; Wildland Firefighter Foundation; United Way Pacific Northwest Disaster Recovery Fund; American Red Cross Cascades Region; Confederated Tribe of Warm Springs. All trusted state partners and agencies remain committed to supporting wildfire survivors and preventing the fraudulent activity that slows recovery. Together, we can protect our communities, ensure donations reach those who need them most, and safeguard survivors from fraud and identity theft. For more information on wildfire recovery resources in your area, contact your local or Tribal Office of Emergency Management. If you have questions or concerns about donation requests you’ve received, contact your local law enforcement agency.

Newest RFPA Trained, Responding to Fires
OR Dept. of Forestry release - Upon request of landowners in northern Umatilla County, the formation of the North Pendleton RFPA was approved by the Oregon Board of Forestry on March 4, 2026. This was the first new RFPA to form since the Grizzly RFPA in March 2023. “There has been a desire to have some sort of fire protection North of Pendleton for at least my lifetime,” said Randy Bracher from the North Pendleton RFPA. “I’m blown away by the level of support our community, local fire protection districts and community leaders have for this RFPA.” The Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) alongside the U.S. Wildland Fire Service, the U.S. Forest Service and local fire district personnel instructed two basic fire training classes that were attended by 62 of the new association members. ODF also assisted in providing 20 portable radios, 70 pieces of personal protective equipment (PPE) and six pieces of Federal Excess Firefighting Equipment. This level of assistance was made possible through HB 3349, which established the Rangeland Protection Association Fund and authorized ODF to transfer used vehicles and other firefighting equipment to RFPAs through sale or donation. “We officially began on March 4 of this year and have been on our heels to get trained up and the resources we need,” Bracher said. “Our optimum goal in creating the RFPA was safety and communication.” On June 14, the association responded to their first large fire, the Twin Sisters Fire. So far this summer, the association has responded to eight fires. “It’s been an incredible experience to work with these landowners through the RFPA formation process,” said Allison Rayburn, ODF’s Rangeland Coordinator. “And it was amazing to hear them say after their first large fire response that the RFPA model was a great success and that communication, safety, and quick action were all key to getting a handle on the fire.” RFPAs support during initial attack and willingness to share their knowledge of the surrounding area make them a vital local resource in wildfire suppression efforts in Oregon.

Emergency Conflagration Act invoked in Wasco Co.
OR State Fire Marshal release - SALEM, Ore. – The Emergency Conflagration Act was invoked Wednesday afternoon for the fast-moving Grasshopper Fire in Wasco County.

The Oregon State Fire Marshal sent three task forces on Saturday, July 25 through Immediate Response. The task forces have been working alongside our wildland partners, actively protecting the communities of Sportsman Park and Pine Hollow. The Wasco County Sheriff’s Office has levels 1, 2, and 3 evacuation orders in place. Those looking for information about evacuations can follow the sheriff’s office on Facebook or view the evacuation areas here. The fire was mapped Tuesday night at 18,136 acres.

ODFW marine researchers head offshore to Cobb Seamount searching for old female rockfish
ODFW release - NEWPORT, Ore. – ODFW’S Marine Fisheries Research team is headed out to sea to search for old female rockfish, particularly black, canary and yellowtail rockfish. The team, along with two collaborators from Oregon State University leave Newport Aug. 1 for Cobb Seamount, an inactive underwater volcano, 322 miles west of Oregon’s north coast. Why these three rockfish species? These three fish species are unique because, as they get older, most of the population are males. Scientists have also found that older fish are rarely caught in commercial or recreational fisheries. This raises an important question: where are these older female fish? One possibility is that they move to offshore seamounts. This unusual pattern also raises another important question: are older female fish still alive and able to reproduce? If scientists cannot determine whether these older females are still part of the breeding population, it becomes much harder to estimate how many young fish will be added each year. These estimates are essential for setting fishing limits that keep fish populations healthy. Because commercial and recreational fishing are important to Oregon's coastal economy, collecting the best possible data is critical for making accurate stock assessments. “Black, canary, and yellowtail rockfish have been documented at seamounts, including Cobb Seamount,” said Leif Rasmuson, Project Leader of ODFW’s Marine Fisheries Research Program. “But we just don’t know if old females migrate to those seamounts or if young fish arrive at seamounts due to fish larvae drifting to those areas.” The researchers will try to answer several questions about black, canary, and yellowtail rockfish ranging from whether old females are at Cobb Seamount, and if so, how large is the population, and are they genetically related to nearshore populations. They will also examine if their diets differ from those that live in the nearshore environment, and affix satellite tags to learn if the fish remain at individual seamounts or migrate between seamounts. It will take the team two days to get to Cobb Seamount, and they will spend two weeks conducting research. Cobb Seamount is an ideal place for this research with its biological diversity that supports extensive fish populations, mostly various rockfish species. The team will use scientific fish finders and underwater video cameras to count rockfish species, along with hook and line gear to sample fish for length, age, genetic samples and stomach contents. A small number of black rockfish (or canary or yellowtail if caught) will get satellite tags to learn if the fish are moving among seamounts or between seamounts and the nearshore. Once data is collected, researchers could have results in approximately six months. ODFW Marine Fisheries Research team is headed to Cobb Seamount with two Oregon State University collaborators to search for old female rockfish. The crew will be on The Pacific Storm, a former commercial trawler gifted to OSU and reconfigured as an oceanographic research vessel.

DEQ issues 10 enforcement actions in June for environmental violations
DEQ release - Statewide, Ore. – The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality issued 10 penalties in June totaling $270,753 for various environmental violations. June enforcements are listed below.

North of Cape Falcon Commercial Troll Salmon Action Notice
ODFW release - The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) in consultation with the Pacific Fishery Management Council (PFMC), the State of Washington, the State of Oregon, and advisory body members met Wednesday and have taken the following in-season management actions related to the spring and summer commercial troll salmon seasons from the US/Canada Border to Cape Falcon, Oregon: ACTION TAKEN: Effective 12:01 AM Thursday July 30, landing and possession limits for the commercial troll fishery in the area between the U.S./Canada border and Cape Falcon are 40 Chinook and 75 marked (adipose fin-clipped) coho per vessel per landing week (Thursday-Wednesday). RATIONALE: The current estimates are that there are approximately 33% of the 18,700 Chinook quota, and 80% of the 19,600 coho quota remaining. The reduction in the Chinook, and increase in the coho weekly landing limit, was made to facilitate access to the coho quota without exceeding the Chinook quota. Fishery participants are reminded that vessels landing salmon into Oregon from any season North of Cape Falcon are required to notify ODFW at least one hour prior to landing by either calling 541-857-2546 or sending notification via email to [email protected]. Notification shall include vessel name and number, number of salmon by species, port of landing, location of delivery, and estimated time of delivery.

Lane Co. Deputy Charged with Child Exploitation Offenses
Lane Co. SO release - EUGENE, Ore.—A Lane County Sheriff’s Deputy was arrested and charged by criminal complaint with actual and attempted sexual exploitation of a minor, enticement of a minor, and receipt of child sexual abuse material. Dylan Ford, 29, made his first appearance in federal court today before a U.S. Magistrate Judge. He was ordered detained pending further court proceedings. According to court documents, Ford allegedly exchanged sexually explicit chats, images, and videos with multiple children under the age of 16. He used Telegram, an encrypted chat platform, and disappearing photo apps to begin conversations that would develop into sexual exchanges with the children. As part of their investigation, state and federal investigators obtained a search warrant and searched Ford’s cell phone. Ford’s phone contained numerous conversations with self-described minors in which he enticed the children into sending him custom child sexual abuse material, including instructing specific sexual acts involving the use of household items. Investigators also located a video depicting a distressed, crying minor carrying out various sexual acts. In some of the chats, Ford sent minors a colleague’s social media profile photo in an apparent effort to shield his identity. The Lane County Sheriff’s Office requested the assistance of the Linn County Sheriff’s Office immediately upon becoming aware of the possibility that Ford was engaging in this activity. The Linn County Sheriff’s Office then contacted the FBI to collaborate on the investigation. Ford was arrested on July 28, 2026, by the FBI. This case was investigated by the FBI in coordination with the Linn County Sheriff’s Office. It is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Will McLaren. Anyone who has information about the physical or online exploitation of children is encouraged to call the FBI at 1-800-CALL-FBI (1-800-225-5324) or submit a tip online at tips.fbi.gov. Federal law defines child pornography as any visual depiction of sexually explicit conduct involving a minor. It is important to remember child sexual abuse material depicts actual crimes being committed against children. Not only do these images and videos document the victims’ exploitation and abuse, but when shared across the internet, re-victimize and re-traumatize the child victims each time their abuse is viewed. To learn more, please visit the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children at www.missingkids.org. This case was brought in collaboration with Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse, launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice. Led by the U.S. Attorneys’ Offices and the DOJ’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who exploit children, as well as identify and rescue victims. For more information about Project Safe Childhood, please visit www.justice.gov/psc.
