| Mobilization Plan |
|
The Fire Service Mobilization Plan is a guide for OSFM personnel and emergency responders to use during times of emergency. The plan establishes operating procedures for the most practical utilization of state resources during all-hazard emergencies that are beyond the capabilities of local resources. The Mobilization Plan assumes fire departments and districts have mutual aid agreements to respond to local emergencies.

| State Fire Defense Board |
|
Specified geographic regions in Oregon, usually by county, have a fire defense board consisting of local fire chiefs from each structural jurisdiction in the region or county. Each fire defense board elects a chief to provide leadership and represent them on the state fire defense board. Fire defense boards enhance mutual aid, consistency within the Oregon fire service and act to create stronger individual fire departments and districts.

| Conflagrations |
|
The Office of State Fire Marshal assists and supports the Oregon fire service during major emergency operations through the Conflagration Act (ORS 476.510). The Conflagration Act was developed in 1940 as a civil defense measure and can be invoked only by the governor. The act allows the State Fire Marshal to mobilize firefighters and equipment from around the state. The Conflagration Act is only used for fires that involve or threaten life and structures.
