Paula Gillock, 53, waits in line for breakfast at the Silver Dollar Fairground on Monday, Feb. 13, 2017, in Chico, Calif., after residents were evacuated from the possible failure of the emergency spillway at the Oroville Dam. Sunday afternoon's evacuation order came after engineers spotted a hole on the concrete lip of the secondary spillway for the 770-foot-tall Oroville Dam and told authorities that it could fail within the hour. The water level dropped Monday, reducing the risk of a catastrophic spillway collapse and easing fears that prompted the evacuation of nearly 200,000 people downstream.(Paul Kitagaki Jr./The Sacramento Bee via AP)
