A. Purpose The El Dorado County Wildfire Protection Plan is the Council's strategy for reducing the damage and loss from wildfires by placing emphasis on what needs to be done before a wildfire starts.

The plan is a cooperative effort with the CDF and the ENF, agencies of El Dorado County, local Fire Protection Districts and the EDCFSC.
