Media Relations

The Eureka Fire Protection District has a long-standing commitment to working in cooperation with media entities and personnel. We recognize that many of our responses and operations are considered to be newsworthy. We further recognize that media outlets have an obligation to provide timely and accurate information to their listeners, readers, and viewers. We strive to provide such information to reporters.

​

The Eureka Fire Protection District also strongly believes we have an obligation beyond mitigating fire, EMS, rescue, and hazardous materials incidents; to educate the public to prevent emergencies. Personnel from the district regularly engage in safety presentations and outreach programs. We can extend the reach and scope of our education programs and the message we hope to convey by working with the media. A timely feature story produced in conjunction with a media outlet can educate thousands of citizens.
