The Forest Service set a May 1 deadline for homeless campers to leave an area where the agency plans to do wildfire work. More than 60 people remained Wednesday.

The U.S. Forest Service is evicting dozens of homeless people who have been living in a national forest in central Oregon for years so that it can start a wildfire prevention project.

The closure at Deschutes National Forest was for a fire-prevention project, but advocates worry the displaced will have nowhere to go.
