ISO Insurance Rating

Clackamas Fire District #1 ISO Rating: 2

The Insurance Services Office, Inc. (ISO) provides a rating system for public protection classifications. This system, through analysis of all aspects of the Fire District and water supply, determines a fire districts ability to respond to fires and thus is used by many insurance companies to determine the risk and premiums associated with these risks from fire.

Clackamas Fire District #1 was re-evaluated in 2017 and was given an ISO Class 2 rating within 5 road miles of a fire station. As all residences are thought to be within a 5 mile travel distance of a fire station, residences within Clackamas Fire District #1’s response area carry an ISO Class 2 rating.

This Class 2 rating applies to all areas currently served by Clackamas Fire District #1 including; the cities of Milwaukie, Oregon City, Happy Valley, and Johnson City, and the un-incorporated areas of Boring, Clackamas, Damascus, Eagle Creek, Oak Lodge, Redland, Beavercreek, Carver, Clarkes, and Highland.

The Fire Suppression Rating Schedule (FSRS) is a technical manual used by ISO in reviewing the fire-fighting capabilities of individual communities. The schedule measures the major elements of a community’s fire-suppression system and develops a numerical grading called a Public Protection Classification (PPCTM).
