TRINITY RIVER/COUNTY
Non-Residents Asked to Stay
out of Trinity County
WEAVERVILLE – For anglers who might
have been interested in fishing the Trinity
River, Trinity Lake or Lewiston Reservoir,
be advised that the Trinity County Health
Officer is advising non residents to stay
out of Trinity County at this time.
David Herfindahl MD, MPH Health
Officer and Marcie Jo Cudziol RN, PHN,
MPA PHN Director, issued a Health Officer
Advisory and Order on March 25:
“As positive cases of coronavirus
(COVID-19) continue to spread around
the world, residents of Trinity County are
increasingly concerned about the virus
being brought into the county by infected
travelers who own homes here, but do
not reside here year-round. In light of this
consideration, anyone choosing to reside
in their second home within Trinity County
shall self-quarantine for a period of no
less than 14 days upon arrival. During
this quarantine period you could leave
the home for essential services such as
getting food, purchasing gas, and going to
the pharmacy or to a health care provider.
All non-residents are being asked to
stay out of Trinity County at this time as
ordered by the Governor of California.
This is an effort to prevent unintentional
spread of the coronavirus to residents
who would otherwise be at a reduced
risk of exposure. As with any pandemic,
the primary concern is keeping people
safe, but also people need to understand
Trinity County has limited resources and
our medical system could be quickly
overwhelmed should the precautions not
be heeded. Your cooperation in this matter
is greatly appreciated as we continue to
navigate through this pandemic.”
If there are any questions concerning
this Health Officer Order please contact
Public Health at 530-623-8209 or the
Trinity County Office of Emergency
Services at 530-623-1116. More
