ESTABLISHMENT OF CHECKPOINTS - UPDATE ON MALHEUR NATIONAL WILDLIFE
REFUGE SITUATION
News Release from *FBI - Oregon*
/Posted on FlashAlert: January 27th, 2016 4:14 AM/
The FBI and Oregon State Police have initiated a containment of the
Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in order to better ensure the safety of
community members and law enforcement. This decision was made out of an
abundance of caution. We ask you to remain vigilant and report any
suspicious activity to the tip line at (541) 573-3162.
The containment procedure involves a series of checkpoints established
along key routes into and out of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge.
Attempts to Travel Into the Refuge
There will be signage ahead of each checkpoint. Anyone who moves beyond
that signage will be stopped, identified and asked leave. Non-compliant
people will be subject to arrest.
Leaving the Refuge
Anyone coming out of the refuge will have his or her identification
confirmed and any associated vehicles searched.
Resident Ranchers Only
The only people allowed to pass into the checkpoints will be Harney
County ranchers who own property in those specific areas. They will be
required to show photo ID as they go in and out.
