Orange County Fire Authority Ford F-250 SuperDuty Utility 2

            A huge thank you to the Orange County Fire Authority and all the mutual aid providers who risked their lives to protect life and property during the Springs Fire.  Your bravery and hard work is appreciated.

The Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) is the agency that provides fire protection and emergency medical services for unincorporated areas of Orange County, California and cities that contract OCFA's services.

OCFA serves nearly 1.8 million residents in 23 cities and unincorporated areas from 71 fire stations. The OCFA Headquarters is located in the city of Irvine.

Prior to 1980 the California Department of Forestry (now known as CAL-Fire) operated the Orange County Fire Department under contract. In 1980 then California Governor Jerry Brown cancelled the California Department of Forestry contract with the Orange County Fire Department against the wishes of Orange County. As a result, Orange County operated the Orange County Fire Department (OCFD) beginning May 16, 1980. Due to the incorporations of new cities and additional cities contracting with the County Fire Department, in 1991 the OCFD began exploring the possibility of reorganizing as a separate agency - first as a Special District and then as a Joint Powers Authority. The County filed for bankruptcy in 1994, which further encouraged Orange County Fire Department to reorganize as a JPA, known as the Orange County Fire Authority.
