News Release

Conflagration Invoked, Oregon State Fire Marshal Mobilizes Firefighters, Equipment To Cold Springs Fire -07/02/25

SALEM, Ore. – A quick, wind-driven fire in Umatilla County prompted the Oregon State Fire Marshal to mobilize four task forces and an incident management team. The Cold Springs Fire was reported on Wednesday afternoon and raced to more than 1,000 acres as of late afternoon, according to Umatilla County Fire District 1. The Umatilla County Sheriff’s Office has issued levels 1, 2, and 3 evacuation notices for those living near the fire.  

 

The Oregon State Fire Marshal initially sent help through immediate response on Wednesday afternoon, with two structural task forces from Clackamas and Washington counties and air support through agreements with the Oregon Department of Forestry. To provide additional help, the agency is mobilizing its Green Incident Management Team and two more task forces.  

 

The OSFM Green Incident Management Team will take command of the fire Thursday at 9 a.m.  

 

“The latest wildfire forecast for July and August is extremely concerning,” State Fire Marshal Mariana Ruiz-Temple said. “Over the last 48 hours, we saw thousands of lightning strikes across the state, and Red Flag Warnings issued for critical fire danger. I’m calling on everyone to pay attention to the conditions and take the necessary steps to prevent sparking a human-caused fire.” 

 

For fire updates until the Green Incident Management Team takes command, please follow the Umatilla County Fire District 1. For evacuation information, please follow the Umatilla County Sheriff’s Office. 

 

This is the third time the Emergency Conflagration Act has been invoked in 2025, and the third immediate response for the Oregon State Fire Marshal.

Oregon State Fire Marshal, IBHS Partner For Defensible Space And Home Hardening Live Burn Demonstration (Photo) -06/25/25

SALEM, Ore - In less than an hour, a model home in Salem was reduced to ashes by fire on Wednesday, while the one next door saw minimal damage. The difference? The surviving home was built to the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS)’s Wildfire Prepared Home standard using defensible space best practices and non-flammable materials. During the live demonstration, hosted by the Oregon State Fire Marshal, IBHS showed the research-based actions Oregonians can take to better protect their homes and properties. 

 

This event comes at a critical moment. Fire season is here and projected to be above average for the entire state. It follows on the heels of the historic season last summer. From 2020 to 2024, wildfire seasons have grown increasingly complex with larger and more frequent fires moving farther north and west into communities not historically affected. Last year alone, Oregon saw a record-breaking 1.9 million acres burned. 

 

“Wildfire is no longer a rural issue or something that affects just one region of the state; it’s a growing threat for all Oregonians,” State Fire Marshal Mariana Ruiz-Temple said. “Today’s demonstration makes that reality personal. Seeing the way bark mulch, shrubs and building materials burn helps people connect the dots between small, affordable changes and real protection.” 

 

According to IBHS, embers are the leading cause of home ignition from wildfires. 

 

“Research should guide us in finding effective solutions,” IBHS CEO Roy Wright said. “We know that maintaining a five-foot noncombustible zone around your home helps to ensure embers landing in that area just fizzle out. Fortunately, you don’t have to compromise curb appeal at the expense of safety – there are smart, attractive ways to have both.” 

 

Oregon homeowners now have the opportunity to earn IBHS’s Wildfire Prepared Home designation, based on the latest wildfire research, after they follow the standard’s system of actions addressing the three most vulnerable areas of a home, including having a Class A roof, installing exterior features such as ember-resistant vents, and maintaining a noncombustible 0–5-foot zone.  

 

“The good news is that most homes in Oregon already have a Class A roof,” Wright said. “The other actions can be low-cost and often done as DIY projects. And perhaps the best part – the actions that make a home survivable also make it insurable.” 

 

The work of IBHS aligns closely with the efforts to ensure the availability and affordability of insurance across Oregon. The Division of Financial Regulation, the state’s insurance regulator, has collaborated with the Oregon State Fire Marshal and IBHS to examine approaches to wildfire-related challenges over multiple wildfire seasons. “It is exciting to see the next evolution of our work with IBHS begin, and through this event remind people of the steps they can take now to protect lives and property,” said TK Keen, Oregon’s acting insurance commissioner. “The IBHS work will allow us to follow the science in mitigation and fire resistance, which is instructive to carriers in setting property insurance rates.” 

 

Why did one home survive, and the other did not? 

 

The house that burned: 

  • Bark mulch in the 0–5-foot zone created easily ignitable fuel right next to the house, allowing embers to quickly start a fire at the foundation. 

  • Plants growing against the house provided continuous, flammable material that allowed fire to spread rapidly to the structure. 

  • A wood pile stacked against the house acted as a direct ignition source, fueling flames that could easily reach siding and windows. 

  • Leaves and debris collected in gutters and on the roof caught embers and ignited, spreading fire along the roofline and into the home. 

  • Untreated cedar planks, plastic/vinyl gutters, and open eaves were highly combustible and allowed embers to enter and ignite the home. 

 The house that survived: 

  • Cement pavers in place of bark mulch in the 0–5-foot zone eliminated easily ignitable fuel near the home’s foundation, preventing ember-driven fires from taking hold. 

  • Plants were spaced away from the house, reducing continuous fuel and slowing fire spread near the structure. 

  • Wood piles were kept far away from the house, removing a direct source of ignition that could carry flames to the home. 

  • Gutters and roofs were clear of leaves and debris, minimizing places for embers to ignite and spread fire. 

  • The home was built with fire-resistive siding, aluminum gutters and vent mesh screens, which prevented embers from igniting the structure and blocked fire entry points like open eaves.

Reminder: OSFM Live Burn Demonstration Tomorrow - Please RSVP -06/24/25

Salem, Ore. – The Oregon State Fire Marshal and the Insurance Institute for Business & Home Safety (IBHS) are teaming up for a live fire demonstration to show how defensible space and home hardening can protect your home and property during a wildfire. The demonstration will compare fire behavior between two homes, one that is prepared for wildfire resilience and one that is not.

 

You'll see firsthand how simple steps can make a big difference, especially when it comes to stopping embers, which are the number one cause of homes catching on fire during wildfires. This live burn will highlight the importance of creating and maintaining a five-foot area free of things that can burn around a home.

 

Those interested in attending, please RSVP here.

 

What:

The Oregon State Fire Marshal and IBHS wildfire researchers will provide practical tips Oregonians can use to improve their home's chance of surviving a wildfire. These include creating a noncombustible zone in the first five feet, using fire-resistant building materials, and preparing the property to be ready for wildfire. During the demonstration, experts will narrate and show the progression, from embers landing to total loss of the building that isn’t prepared for wildfire. They will also explain why certain materials and landscaping choices, based on IBHS’s Wildfire Prepared Home program, make a difference.

Oregon State Fire Marshal Urges Oregonians To Check Fireworks Restrictions, Keep Celebrations Legal And Safe (Photo) -06/23/25

SALEM, Ore. – With fireworks sales beginning today, the Oregon State Fire Marshal is reminding people to celebrate the Fourth of July responsibly and legally. The 2025 fireworks retail sales season in Oregon runs from June 23 through July 6, and the agency’s message is clear: “Keep it legal. Keep it safe.” 

 

As Oregonians make plans for the holiday, they’re urged to check local rules and restrictions on both the sale and use of fireworks—whether celebrating at home or traveling.

 

“Before lighting any fireworks, make sure you know what’s allowed where you are,” Oregon State Fire Marshal Mariana Ruiz-Temple said. “We want everyone to enjoy the holiday, but it’s critical to follow the law and avoid actions that could cause a fire or injury.”

 

Local governments across Oregon may set additional restrictions on the sale or use of fireworks, especially in areas at higher risk of wildfires. It’s the responsibility of those using fireworks to understand and follow local laws.

 

Fireworks safety and legal reminders

Consumer-legal fireworks may be purchased only from permitted retailers and stands. These fireworks may not be used on:

  • Public lands and parks
  • National parks and forests
  • Bureau of Land Management lands
  • U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service properties
  • Oregon state beaches, parks, and campgrounds
  • Private lands protected by the Oregon Department of Forestry

To help reduce the risk of fire and injury, fire officials urge Oregonians to follow the four Bs of safe fireworks use:

  • Be prepared: Have a bucket of water or a hose nearby.
  • Be safe: Keep children and pets at a safe distance. Never use fireworks near dry grass or other flammable materials.
  • Be responsible: Do not relight duds. Soak used fireworks in water before disposal.
  • Be aware: Use only legal fireworks and only where they are allowed.

Illegal fireworks and consequences

Oregon law prohibits the possession, use, or sale of any fireworks that fly into the air, explode, or travel more than 12 feet horizontally on the ground without a permit from the state fire marshal. This includes items such as bottle rockets, Roman candles, and firecrackers.

 

Violations are a Class B misdemeanor, with a maximum fine of $2,500. Those who misuse fireworks or are found to be responsible for them causing damage may be held financially responsible for fire suppression and other costs. Parents can also be held liable for damage caused by their children.

Oregon State Fire Marshal Marks Completion Of Statewide Engine Program Deliveries (Photo) -06/17/25

SALEM, Ore. – The Oregon State Fire Marshal (OSFM) has made the final deliveries of new fire engines under its Engine Program, marking a major milestone in the agency’s commitment to modernize equipment and enhancing wildfire response capabilities within the Oregon structural fire service. 

 

The delivery of the last type 3 engines on Monday completes the agency’s distribution of 76 new firefighting vehicles to local fire agencies. The program, part of Response Ready Oregon, was funded through Senate Bill 762, Oregon’s wildfire omnibus bill signed into law in 2021. 

 

"This is a landmark achievement for our agency, the Oregon fire service, and the communities we serve," State Fire Marshal Mariana Ruiz-Temple said. "Through this program, we’re making a lasting investment in Oregon’s firefighting capacity and preparedness at a time when the threat of wildfire continues to grow." 

 

The OSFM Engine Program provided: 

  • 26 type 3 engines 

  • 20 type 6 engines 

  • 30 water tenders 

 

The apparatus were awarded to 76 local structural fire agencies across Oregon following a thorough review process in partnership with fire service associations and an advisory committee. All units are fully equipped to meet the state’s fire service mobilization standards and tailored for response in wildland-urban interface environments. 

 

“From the first engine delivered to Central Cascades Fire & EMS to the final engines of Klamath County Fire District 1 and Keno Fire Department, each apparatus brings stronger protection for our communities,” OSFM Chief Deputy Travis Medema said. “We are incredibly proud of the collaboration and commitment that made this program a success.” 

 

The OSFM's Response Ready Oregon program's goal is to keep wildfires small and prevent them from reaching communities, ultimately reducing the frequency and cost of large-scale fires. For a list of awarded agencies, photos of apparatus deliveries, and more information, visit the OSFM Engine Program webpage. 

Oregon State Fire Marshal Mobilizes Resources To Alder Springs Fire In Jefferson County -06/16/25

SALEM, Ore – A quick-moving wildfire in Jefferson County that led to level 3 evacuations Monday afternoon prompted the Oregon State Fire Marshal to mobilize an incident management team and several structural protection task forces.  

 

The agency is mobilizing resources to the Alder Springs Fire burning west of Crooked River Ranch in Jefferson County. The fire sparked midday Monday on the Crooked River National Grasslands and grew rapidly to 1,500 acres by 5 p.m. Throughout Monday afternoon, wildland firefighters worked to slow the fire on the ground and in the air with several large air tankers and smoke jumpers. 

 

On Monday night, the state fire marshal mobilized two structural task forces through Immediate Response. On Tuesday morning, the OSFM’s Red Incident Management Team and six more structural task forces will arrive in Central Oregon.  

 

“This is the second time our agency has mobilized resources in the last week because of a wildfire,” State Fire Marshal Mariana Ruiz-Temple said. “The conditions we are seeing across Oregon are extremely concerning, especially in early June. It only takes a spark to cause a disaster, so be wildfire aware.” 

 

The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office issued levels 1, 2, and 3 evacuation notices for homes and properties near the fire. You can find the latest on evacuations here. The Deschutes County Sheriff also issued level 1 evacuations.

  

The Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office says a shelter is set up at Highland Baptist Church in Redmond and Ranch Chapel. Animals can be taken to the Deschutes County Fairgrounds or Over the Edge Taphouse (with your own corral). 

 

The OSFM Red Incident Management Team will be briefed Tuesday at 9 a.m. and take unified command with the Central Oregon Fire Management Service Type 3 Team. For updates on the fire, please follow Central Oregon Fire. 

 

The Oregon State Fire Marshal mobilizes resources through the Emergency Conflagration Act when invoked by the Governor. The Alder Springs Fire is the second conflagration of 2025.

Emergency Conflagration Act Invoked For Rowena Fire In Wasco County -06/11/25

SALEM, Ore. – The Oregon State Fire Marshal is mobilizing structural firefighters and an incident management team to fight the Rowena Fire burning in Wasco County. The fire was first reported on Wednesday afternoon and quickly spread, prompting level three, Go Now, evacuations by the Wasco County Sheriff. The fire prompted the closure of I-84 between Mosier and The Dalles as firefighters work to stop the fast-moving flames.  

 

At 4:15 p.m., Wednesday, Oregon Governor Tina Kotek invoked the Emergency Conflagration Act, which allows the state fire marshal to mobilize resources. The agency is currently mobilizing its Green Incident Management Team and six structural task forces. Three task forces will be responding tonight and three more will be arriving early Thursday morning. The Oregon State Fire Marshal Green Team will be working in unified command with the Central Oregon Fire Management Service Type 3 team. 

 

“This early season conflagration should come as a reminder to Oregonians to be ready for wildfire,” State Fire Marshal Mariana Ruiz-Temple said. “The predictions for this summer are extremely concerning. I am asking everyone to take that extra minute to mindful of the conditions and remember it takes a single spark to ignite a disaster.” 

 

The Wasco County Sheriff’s Office is posting the latest evacuation information here. The agency says The Dalles Middle School (1100 E 12th St, The Dalles, OR 97058) is open as a temporary shelter and the Wasco County Fairgrounds (81849 Fairgrounds Rd, Tygh Valley, OR 97063) is open for livestock and horses.
