Transfer of command will be at 6 a.m. on Sunday, August 16. “As a district, we’ve been spread incredibly thin this season, so we are happy to have the support of the complex incident management teams on these fires,” said Rob Pentzer, ODF Central Oregon District Forester. The fire information as of today is as follows: Rowe Creek Complex: 371,549 acres, 84% contained; Bologna : 3,860 acres, 30% contained; Cottonwood: 723 acres, 45% contained; Evacuations are in effect for these fires.
