A Federal Aid Co-operative Agreement has been entered into between the
State, the Federal Government, and Wheeler County for the grading of a
5.5 mile section on the McKenzie River Highway. This section is known as
the Ochoco Canyon Section and extends from the Crook County line to a
point about 16 miles west of Mitchell.
This work is estimated to cost $45,000.00 of which the State will pay
$20,050.00, Wheeler County $4,900.00, and the Federal Government
$20,050.00. It is expected that this section will be built during the
1919 season.
