ISO Rating
Bigfork Fire Department has made substantial improvements to receive a ISO PPC 4/10 classification for the fire district, which will be effective on 4/1/2016. Prior to this time, the Class 4 only applied to those areas within 1000 feet of a fire hydrant. With this new survey, the department has gone through the process to extend this coverage to five road miles from all three stations by using a tender shuttle operation. This is a substantial change for those that are not near either the Bigfork or Woodsbay water systems. These properties were originally a Class 9 and now will be Class 4. Class 10 applies to all areas outside of five road miles and that has not changed from the prior rating.
