Eastern Washington Wildfire Resource Kit

Wildfires are the largest naturally-occurring threat for Eastern Washingtonians. It's important to be aware of the wildfires that break out and how to stay safe. 

Below is a list of federal, state and local resources to help keep your and your families safe from wildfires. I encourage you to read through the relevant resources applicable to your community.

Please do not hesitate to contact my office should you or a loved one need assistance or guidance. We stand ready to help in any way we can.

Stay safe,

Congressman Michael Baumgartner
