    State Responsibility Area (SRA) Viewer

    Metadata Updated: July 23, 2025

    Pursuant to California Public Resources Code (4125-4137), the Board of Forestry is tasked with classifying all lands within the State for the purpose of determining the financial responsibility for wildfire protection and suppression. The purpose of this viewer is to display current responsibility areas within the state.
    State Responsibility Area (SRA) undergoes a thorough review by CAL FIRE and the Board of Forestry and Fire Protection every five years. This review was most recently conducted for 2020, with the next scheduled for 2025. Additional 'automatic' changes happen on a yearly basis as a result of annexations or de-annexations by incorporated cities, federal land acquisitions or disposals, and changes in county-level parcels that shift where responsibility areas were previously aligned. 
    This viewer displays the most current version of SRA.
