Tahoe Douglas Fire Protection District in Zephyr Cove serving Douglas County in Lake Tahoe. Tahoe Douglas Fire Protection District was formed in 1946 to meet the expectations of the community to guard against the threat of fire in the wildland-urban interface. The challenge of meeting those expectations is dynamic which asks us to be more innovative to respond through a professionally, highly-trained, well-equipped organization in those expected services with concern for the well being of our personnel.
