FIRE MANAGEMENT PLAN 2008<br />
<strong>Lassen</strong>-<strong>Modoc</strong> <strong>Unit</strong><br />
If you turn right toward Alturas, the road then becomes County Road 77. Continue on to<br />
County Road 54 (Centerville Rd.). Turn right <strong>and</strong> go east to County Road 71 (CalPines Bl.).<br />
Turn right on County Rd. 71 (CalPines Bl.) <strong>and</strong> continue to Diamond “C” Ranch Rd. Turn<br />
right <strong>and</strong> go to Honker Cove Campground (meeting place).<br />
MEETING PLACES:<br />
In any organized evacuation it is necessary that all people be accounted for. After you are<br />
informed <strong>of</strong> the order to evacuate, it is assumed you will depart <strong>and</strong> follow the directions <strong>of</strong><br />
the messenger. Remember that if the order be from the Sheriff, it has the effect <strong>of</strong> law <strong>and</strong><br />
compliance will be expected.<br />
Each route designates a “meeting place”. When arriving at the meeting place you should<br />
“check in” with the person who is keeping an account <strong>of</strong> residents. This person will have a<br />
badge or other identification.<br />
If you need to get to a telephone, you may proceed on your way after “checking in”. There<br />
are public telephones available at Canby, Adin, Alturas, Likely <strong>and</strong> CalPines Lodge.<br />
If you choose a different route or should you decide not to leave, it is possible that no one<br />
will know where you are until after the emergency (usually a fire) has been brought under<br />
control <strong>and</strong> the sheriff has given the okay to return to the hill. An effort will be made to<br />
contact you but this may not be successful. To prevent this type <strong>of</strong> problem we ask for your<br />
cooperation if ordered to evacuate.<br />
The <strong>Fire</strong> Department certainly hopes that implementation <strong>of</strong> this plan will never be necessary,<br />
but we feel that to have such a plan will help everyone to remain calm <strong>and</strong> better able to cope<br />
with the possibility <strong>of</strong> fire danger or other problems.<br />
