Oregon was an American state. At one time, it was the site of a Silurian base, which the US branch of UNIT dispatched militarily. UNIT also had a listening post somewhere in the foothills of the Columbia Plateau at which David Arthurs and Bob Decker were stationed during the 1970s.

In the early 21st century, ozone depletion caused environmental damage in Oregon. Tessa Mancuso had a cousin there. (PROSE: Cat's Cradle: Warhead [+]Andrew Cartmel, Virgin New Adventures (Virgin Books, 1992).) On another occasion — on or just after Miracle Day — television station WNKW reported it to be the site of a death that turned out to be a hoax. (TV: The New World [+]Russell T Davies, Torchwood series 4 (Starz, 2011).)
