| “The time frame that we were dealing with at that point was mere hours. I couldn’t risk the lives of thousands of people,” Butte County Sheriff Kory Honea told reporters after a hole formed in an emergency spillway at the Oroville Dam in Northern California. Authorities began using the emergency spillway after a 200-foot long, 30-foot-deep fissure formed in the dam’s primary relief valve last week. From Pastor Jerry McCullah in California: Roads out of Oroville area are congested with people trying to leave. This is very serious, your effectual, fervent prayers are appreciated. |
