Fire Prevention
Fire Hazard Severity Zones (FHSZs)
Fire Hazard Severity Zones (FHSZs) are designated areas identified based on wildfire risk and are required under California Government Code Section 51179. This classification, implemented by CAL FIRE’s Office of the State Fire Marshal, helps communities prepare for and mitigate wildfire hazards. Understanding these zones is essential for safety, planning, and compliance with state regulations.
FHSZs for the City of Rocklin are anticipated to go into effect no later than June 10, 2025.
