Cameron Park / Cal Fire Department Cooperative Agreement

In November of 1996, The Cameron Park Community services District (CSD) entered into a cooperative agreement with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) for fire prevention, suppression, investigation, and emergency medical services (EMS) for the community of Cameron Park. Known within CAL FIRE as a Schedule 'A' contract, the CSD has access to all of CAL FIRE's statewide resources. Cameron Park provides EMS and Fire protection operations out of two stations: Station 88 and Station 89. The Cameron Park Fire Department provides paramedic service from both stations 24-hour a day, seven days a week. The addition of a fulltime Fire Marshal/ Battalion Chief oversees the CSD's fire prevention and investigation responsibilities. Fire personnel work a 3-day / 72-consecutive hour shift per week. There are currently 24 fulltime members assigned to the Cameron Park Fire Department contract; 2 Battalion Chiefs, 2 Fire Captain/Paramedic, 2 Fire Captain/EMT's, 12 Fire Apparatus Engineer/Paramedics, 3 Fire Apparatus Engineer/EMT's, 2 Fire Safe Council Administrative Assistants, and 1 Office Technician.
