During #WildfirePreparednessWeek we are pleased to announce that our Unit will once again welcome back a Type 1 CH-47 Chinook helicopter to be based at the Napa County Airport starting June 3. Its return marks a significant enhancement to regional emergency preparedness.
Zone 0—the first five feet from your home—is the first line of defense against wildfires.
