McKenzie River Water Quality Remains Excellent
The quality of the McKenzie River’s water remained excellent in 2024, according to the Eugene Water & Electric Board’s (EWEB) 2024 McKenzie Watershed Report, which was published this month.
Frigid temperatures in the low 20s caused surging electricity demand in early February.
Cost of rebuilding EWEB's electrical system will surpass $11 million
Funds will be used to support fuels reduction work on a landscape scale in high-risk areas in the McKenzie River Valley and Eugene South Hills.
For more than a century, EWEB has planned, built, and maintained the systems that deliver safe, reliable, and environmentally responsible power and water to Eugene homes and businesses.
