Marion County to appeal ruling on Detroit Lake draining
Original: Marion County to appeal ruling allowing Army Corps to drain Detroit Lake
Marion County says it will appeal a court ruling that allows the US Army Corps of Engineers to drain Detroit Lake, a major reservoir in the Oregon Cascades. The county is challenging the decision, which clears the way for the Corps to lower the popular recreation and water source lake. Local officials and residents are watching closely because draining the lake would affect tourism, water supply, and surrounding communities.
Why now: A court ruling allowing the Army Corps to drain a major Oregon reservoir has direct consequences for local communities, prompting an immediate appeal.
