This layer of Direct Protection Areas (DPA) has been developed to assist in the process of State and Federal agencies jointly developing their "Operating Plans" which document the location of the DPA boundaries for each agency as identified in the CALIFORNIA MASTER COOPERATIVE WILDLAND FIRE MANAGEMENT AND STAFFORD ACT RESPONSE AGREEMENT (CFMA). See https://gacc.nifc.gov/oscc/cwcg/docs/2013cfma/!!2018%20-%202023%20CFMA%20FINAL%20SIGNED.pdf R5 FS Agreement No. 18-FI-11052012-105 NPS Agreement No. P18AC00292 CA BLM Agreement No. BAA181001 FWS Agreement No. FF08F03000-18X-M010 BIA Agreement No. A18AC00025 CAL FIRE Agreement No. 7CA03983
This layer delineates the dividing lines between land that will be provided wildland fire protection by the State, Federal, and Local agencies. The Cooperative Fire Management Agreement (CFMA) between the federal agencies and the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) is the primary mechanism that provides the framework for wildland fire protection responsibilities statewide. Through this mechanism the state has been divided into practical Direct Protection Areas (DPAs) corresponding with each agency's responsibility. The participating agencies submit proposal for changes to their DPA where necessary. If changes are agreed upon by all parties involved, then the change is approved and the layer is updated.
USDA Forest Service, California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, U.S. Department of the Interior/National Park Service/Bureau of Indian Affairs/Bureau of Land Management/Fish and Wildlife Service, and various local governments.
The DPA boundaries will be reevaluated during preparation of each Annual Operating Plan and during each "field review." When the need to change a DPA boundary is identified, the affected Local Unit will recommend such a change for review and approval by the Agency Administrators. Exhibit E of the CFMA, Changes to Direct Protection Area (DPA), delineates the process for documenting, approving and recording changes to DPA. Whenever such a change is contemplated, the remaining parties to this agreement that are not directly affected by the change shall be notified to review potential indirect effects. The Agencies may initiate independent reviews of DPA boundaries. When changes in the fire protection organization (i.e., a permanent or long term relocation of personnel and equipment) which will directly affect the protection level assigned to lands protected by one agency for another are anticipated, the affected agencies will be notified. Any response to a projected reduction of resources having statewide or regional impact will be coordinated by the Agency Administrators to mitigate impacts.
As incidents occur, the use of the master DPA GIS layer should be used to determine gross scale boundary locations. Locally updated and accurate GIS layers displaying land status shall be used during incidents to determine accurate DPA boundaries.
