Helicopters dropped rock filled sandbags to shore up the dam while crews fortify eroded soils and monitor weather threats.

Officials warned more than ten years ago that the hillside emergency spillway at Northern California's Oroville Dam could fail in a major flood. Over the weekend the storm swollen reservoir sent water down the unpaved slope for 38 hours, triggering evacuations for about 200,000 people. As the water receded, danger eased but further rain threatened residents downriver in Yuba City.
