Scappoose Fire Assists With Awning Collapse At Moorage
- 02/14/21
Scappoose Fire District responded to the 50000 block of Dike road to assist one of our local moorages today (2/14/2021). Due to the significant snow and ice loading from this past weather event, structural collapse occurred with the awnings that covered the boats in this picture.
The collapse affected more than 10 vessels. Thankfully, no one was hurt or present when the awning came down. Additionally, the collapse prevented residents in live aboard vessels and floating homes from ingress and egress.
Scappose Fire assisted the moorage in clearing the main dock so that residents could access and leave their homes.
Scappoose Fire was assisted by Columbia River PUD, who was with us on the previous call for trees into power lines. They were very quick to de-energize the power, preventing fire from electricity and rendering our workspace safe.
