Burn Permits

9-1-1 should be used for reporting all emergencies.  Please note, while in El Dorado County, if you have an emergency and need to dial from a cellular phone, you should dial (530) 626-4911.  If you dial 9-1-1 from a cellular phone, you may be re-routed to a different county which may delay a response to the emergency. 

 Some examples of emergencies include:

  • When you see smoke or fire.
  • When someone’s life and/or property are in immediate danger.
  • When rescue or emergency medical assistance is needed.
  • When you have a visual location on a rattlesnake on your property.
  • When you are not sure, call & let trained personnel decide.
