About the Fire District

Our District:

 The Waterloo Morada Fire District responds to an average of 3,000 calls for service annually, protecting an area that is approximately 36 square miles that is home to nearly 12,000 residents.  We are a progressive all risk/all hazard organization committed to a state of readiness at all times.  The Fire District operates out of 2 fire stations. There are three shifts that work a 48/96 shift schedule, comprised of 6 full time personnel per shift. Station 15-1 is staffed with an engine company comprised of a company officer, fire apparatus engineer, and firefighter. Station 15-2 is staffed with an engine company comprised of a company officer, fire apparatus engineer, and firefighter. The shift battalion chief is assigned to station 15-1; overseeing both companies and performs emergency scene management as well as administrative duties. 

Waterloo Morada Fire District is governed by 5 Board of Directors whom meet monthly, working closely with our Fire Chief and Secretary on district goals and budgetary items.  In the fall of 2014, we began working diligently with neighboring fire districts to form the automatic aid agreement.  Waterloo Morada, Linden Peters and Mokelumne Fire Districts would essentially see what is known as a boundary drop.  In the event an incident should occur above a medical aid e.g. (vehicle accident, structure fire, vegetation fire) the nearest bordering agency  to the incident will be automatically dispatched to augment support for said incident.  The fire service is ever changing, ever evolving, and the Waterloo Morada Fire District is constantly striving to maintain the highest level of emergency protection for a growing community.
