Past emergencies and recovery needs in Yreka

OpenFEMA lists 21 disaster declarations that include Siskiyou County, going back to 1964. The most frequent incident types were wildfire (7 declarations) and flooding (6 declarations). A project that reaches Montague should read that page too; it lists the declarations for its county.

The most recent is Tropical Storm Hilary (major disaster declaration, DR-4750), declared November 21, 2023, with the incident beginning August 19, 2023. Coastal storm recovery depends on feeding responders and displaced workers, often before the local power grid is restored. By incident type, the count is wildfire 7, flooding 6, severe storms 5, hurricane 2 and drought 1. By decade: 1960s 1, 1970s 3, 1990s 3, 2000s 2, 2010s 6 and 2020s 6. Earlier declarations include Severe Winter Storms, Flooding, Landslides, and Mudslides (DR-4683, January 14, 2023), Mill Fire (FM-5450, September 2, 2022), Lava Fire (FM-5393, June 29, 2021), Wildfires (DR-4569, October 16, 2020) and Slater Fire (FM-5361, September 9, 2020).

NOAA's Storm Events Database holds 15 county-based severe-weather event records for Siskiyou County between 2016 and 2025, led by flood events (13) and high-wind and thunderstorm events (2). Floodwater leaves a building standing but unusable, so cooking, dishwashing and cold storage have to run from a trailer on higher, firm ground.

The National Interagency Fire Center maps 28 wildfires of 1,000 acres or more that started in Siskiyou County since 2016, together covering about 940,513 acres. The largest was the Haypress (River Complex) fire in 2021, at 193,402 acres. A fire that never touches a kitchen can still close it: evacuation orders, smoke and utility shutoffs come first.

A declaration designates an area for federal assistance; it does not describe damage at any one address.

Construction projects and crew meals near Yreka

Since October 2021, 11 federal construction contracts of $500,000 or more have named Siskiyou County as the place of work. Another public record is “GAOA - Design Build of New Visitors Center and Headquarters Building at Tule Lake NWR,” a $8.2 million Department of the Interior contract from October 2021 in Siskiyou County (award record). In September 2024, the Department of the Interior awarded a $3.4 million contract for “CA Tule Lake NWR Bunk House Design-Build” in Siskiyou County, with work running to April 2026 (award record). USASpending.gov shows a $886,000 Department of Agriculture contract, “Disaster, Lava Road Repair,” starting June 2026 in Siskiyou County (award record). The Department of the Interior committed $676,000 to “Grid Tied PV System, Lava Beds National Monument, Siskiyou County, California” in Siskiyou County, awarded August 2023 (award record). A contract of that size means a crew that eats on site: hot food for many people on odd shifts, with water and wastewater to plan for the kitchen. A project in Weed, about 2,633 residents, would face the same phasing questions about gates, haul roads and pad space.

Rebuilds and remodels around Yreka

No federal contract for repairing or modernizing a building is on record for Siskiyou County. The nearest is in Jackson County, about 57 miles away. USASpending.gov shows a $9.8 million Department of Veterans Affairs contract, “Minor Project 692-348 - Replace Seismically Deficient Building 220 for Education and Meeting Rooms,” starting September 2018 in Jackson County (award record). The Department of the Interior committed $5.7 million to “OR- Nat'L Forensic Laboratory Seismic Up” in Jackson County, awarded August 2021 (award record). Building repair and modernization work often closes a kitchen for part of the project, which is when a temporary kitchen on a lease keeps meals going. A remodel in Mount Shasta would start from the same closure date and the same temporary-kitchen question.

Those details are theirs to publish and update, so this page points to them instead of guessing at a route. Staging and access details differ again in Dunsmuir, so check the published sources for that area before planning a route.
