SW Polk Fire District, with support from a grant provided by the Oregon State Fire Marshal (OSFM), has contracted SWCA Environmental Consultants to develop the 2025 Community Wildfire Protection Plan (CWPP). This project is coordinated through the Polk County Fire Defense Board, which consists of all fire service agencies in the county and plays a vital role in the CWPP by overseeing wildfire preparedness, response, and mitigation efforts among local agencies, landowners, and emergency services.
