The majority of our District received a new rating of a four (4), some outlying areas will see their rating changed to a nine (9). 

Those whose property has changed to a nine (9) are based on meeting specific WSRB criteria:

1. Distance the property is to a recognized responding and fully staffed fire station within five (5) road miles.
2. Distance the property is to a standard fire hydrant.
3. Fire department supplied water if the property is not near a standard fire hydrant (known as water tender operations).
