Isleton is not mapped as a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone, but the surrounding Delta islands and dry grasslands create real wildfire exposure. CAL FIRE Amador-El Dorado Unit is the state fire authority.
CAL FIRE's Fire Hazard Severity Zone maps do not classify the incorporated City of Isleton as a Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone. However, wildland fires on surrounding Delta islands (Brannan-Andrus, Grand Island, Tyler Island) can threaten the city, and dry tule and grass fires along Highway 160 are common in summer. The city relies on CAL FIRE and Sac Metro Fire for wildland response. New construction must still meet California Building Code Chapter 7A ignition-resistant standards if the county designates a local hazard area. Home hardening resources are available through the state's Safer from Wildfires program.
