Welcome to Evergreen Fire Rescue’s Community Wildfire Protection Plan page. In 2007 EFR embarked on this program as a means to improve our ability to help protect the Evergreen community from the threat of a wildfire disaster. This plan, often referred to as the CWPP, will help EFR and the Evergreen community develop a response plan to be used should a major wildfire event occur within our district. This program is ongoing and will continue to evolve as we examine our district further.
