  • Citizens Protection Classes / Wind Zones / Bcegs
    CITIZENS PROTECTION CLASSES / WIND ZONES / BCEGS FIRE PROTECTION CLASSES These pages provide Public Fire Protection Class (1-10) based on ISO’s Public Protection Class Manual. • City, Town or Fire District listings are organized alphabetically by county. The indicated Protection Class contemplates certain distances from the responding fire station and the hydrant. Remember, it is the responding fire department that governs this rating, not the mailing address. • If a fire protection class rating does not have a plus “+” the stated class applies to all class rated risks within the boundaries of the city, town or fire district. • If a fire protection class has a plus “+” the class shown applies only if within 5 road miles of responding fire station and within 1000 feet from hydrant; � Class “8B” community water supply must deliver uninterrupted minimum fire flow of 200 gpm for 20 minutes. For rating purposes a grade “8” will be applied. � Class “9” if within 5 road miles of responding fire station but over 1000 feet from hydrant; � Class “10” if over 5 road miles from responding fire station. Class “10” also applies to unincorporated areas not contained within a Fire District or OPA. Note 1: Cities and towns not included in the listing may be within Fire Districts Note 2: Hydrant distance requirement does not apply when an alternate creditable water supply is available. These exceptions will be noted under specific communities where applicable. Note 3: The PPC ratings in “()” have been added for ease of reference. In most cases, the PPC is cross-referenced to a corresponding Fire District.
