(Photo credit: Dan Elliot) The American Red Cross acted quickly to establish evacuation centers during the siege. (Photo credit: American Red Cross) Opposite Page: Painting of Harris Fire by Kate Dore, based on photo by Wes Schultz. 2 Introductory Statement In October of 2007, a series of large wildfires ignited and burned hundreds of thousands of acres in Southern California. The fires displaced nearly one million residents, destroyed thousands of homes, and sadly took the lives of 10 people. Shortly after the fire siege began, a team was commissioned by CAL FIRE, the U.S. Forest Service and OES to gather data and measure the response from the numerous fire agencies involved. This report is the result of the team’s efforts and is based upon the best available information and all known facts that have been accumulated. In addition to outlining the fire conditions leading up to the 2007 siege, this report presents statistics —including availability of firefighting resources, acreage engaged, and weather conditions—alongside the strategies that were employed by fire commanders to create a complete day-by-day account of the firefighting effort. The ability to protect the lives, property, and natural resources of the residents of California is contingent upon the strength of cooperation and coordination among federal, state and local firefighting agencies.

  • Cosumnes Fire Department History
    COSUMNES FIRE DEPARTMENT HISTORY The rich history of the Cosumnes Community Services District (District) dates back 127 years to the establishment of three districts: the Elk Grove Fire Protection District (1893), the Galt Fire Protection District (1921), and the Elk Grove Recreation and Park District (1936), which combined in two phases. In 1985, the Elk Grove Fire Protection District and Recreation and Park District merged to form the Elk Grove Community Services District. The Galt Fire Protection District merged with the Elk Grove Community Services District in 2006 to form today’s District, which takes its name from the nearby Cosumnes River. The following is a chronological history of the Cosumnes Fire Department, with the Elk Grove and Galt’s Fire Department’s history listed prior to the merger. ELK GROVE FIRE DEPARTMENT 1892 – 2006 • After a series of fires destroyed all but two buildings on Main Street in 1892, a group of citizens who started the Elk Grove Water Company, constructed an 80-foot water tower on Elk Grove Boulevard. The tank held 45,000 gallons of water, and 3,500 feet of water main was laid east and west on Elk Grove Boulevard, and five fire hydrants were installed. The Elk Grove Water Company conceived the idea of forming a Fire Department. • In 1893 the Elk Grove Fire Department was founded with a single hose cart and a small group of dedicated volunteers. • In 1897 a hose cart shed, hose drying tower, and fire bell were installed to alert the volunteer firefighters, special ordered from San Francisco. It was erected in the hose-drying tower located east of the Southern Pacific Depot.
