Depoe Bay Rural Fire Protection District

The Depoe Bay Rural Fire Protection District serves a unique 13-square-mile area of the Central Oregon Coast, encompassing coastal communities such as Depoe Bay, Gleneden Beach, and Otter Rock. The district covers diverse terrains, from rocky ocean cliffs to vacation complexes and rugged undeveloped land. With three stations and fifteen career staff, including firefighters and administrative support, the district provides essential fire protection, rescue, and emergency medical services. The team is highly valued for their dedicated and courageous service.

The District consists of a unique thirteen square mile area of the Central Oregon Coastline including the coastal communities of Siletz Keys, Salishan, Gleneden Beach, Lincoln Beach, Boiler Bay, Depoe Bay, Miroco, and Otter Rock.  The District includes rocky ocean cliffs along Oregon’s Highway 101, moderate density vacation and condominium complexes, residential and commercial construction, and rugged undeveloped terrain with only logging roads for access. 

Career staff provide fire protection, rescue, and emergency medical services from three stations; Depoe Bay (Station 21) at the District’s center, Gleneden Beach (Station 22) near the northern end of the District, and Otter Rock (Station 23) at the far southern end of the District. 

Currently, the District employs fifteen career staff, which include a Fire Chief, Division Chief, three Captains, three Engineers, 6 Firefighters, and an Administrative Assistant.  The District is extremely proud of the career staff who provide service to the District.  Their service, commitment, and courage are appreciated and respected by those we serve.
