California Fire Plan

The California Fire Plan is the state's road map for reducing the risk of wildfire. The Fire Plan is a cooperative effort between the State Board of Forestry and Fire Protection and the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. By placing the emphasis on what needs to be done long before a fire starts, the Fire Plan looks to reduce fire fighting costs and property losses, increase firefighter safety, and to contribute to ecosystem health.

The current plan was finalized in March 1996 and is now undergoing review by CDF. The Department will provide comment on that plan for the Board of Forestry and Fire Protection to consider as they look to the future.
