About Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue

Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue was established in 1989 through the merger of two regional fire districts. The District has subsequently grown through additional mergers and annexations, including Washington County Fire Protection District 2, the City of Newberg, and Newberg Rural Fire Protection District. TVF&R is an all-hazards, full-service fire district providing fire protection and suppression, emergency medical services, hazardous materials response, technical and water rescue, fire prevention, public education, ambulance transport, and more to 548,000 residents in approximately 390 square miles. Our service area includes 11 cities and portions of four counties in Oregon.

The District operates 28 career fire stations and one volunteer station with a total of 586 employees. Almost 80% of our employees are in positions governed by the District's Civil Service System.
