OPERATIONS AND

MAINTENANCE

“Operations and Maintenance provides six main services: road and bridge maintenance, emergency
response, public right-of-way management, environmental stewardship, service district support
and oversight, and road status information. In other words, we are responsible for road repair and
safety. We maintain roads, bridges, drainage ways, traffic signs, tend roadside vegetation, and

oversee construction in County rights-of-way.”
Dave Schamp, Operations and Maintenance Manager

Operations and Maintenance received renewal of its Oregon Department
of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) Fish Passage Programmatic Agreement based
on the County’s compliance with ODFW’s fish passage requirements. The
new fish passage culverts include a built streambed that mimics natural
conditions. Only one other agency in the state has obtained a similar permit.
