The Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) protects 16 million acres of Oregon's public and private forestlands from wildfire, manages 800,000+ acres of Oregon's state forests, enforces the Oregon Forest Practices Act and other rules and laws to conserve Oregon's forests, assists private forestland owners, and works with urban communities to help sustain Oregon's most "lived-in" forests - trees in urban areas, city parks, neighborhoods, and open spaces. ODF serves Oregonians by helping to keep forests healthy, working, and sustainable.
As Oregon’s largest fire department, ODF's Fire Protection Program protects 16 million acres of forest, a $60 billion asset. These lands consist of privately owned forests as well as some public lands, including state-owned forests and, by contract, US Bureau of Land Management forests in western Oregon. ODF is also part of an extensive fire protection network that includes landowner resources, contract crews and aircraft, adults in custody crews, and agreements with public agencies across Oregon, the US, and British Columbia.
