Relating to fire.
HB 3077 allows Oregon local government employees to volunteer with city fire departments or rural fire protection districts for up to 30 days annually to assist with wildland fire suppression during emergencies. This directly affects public employees whose regular duties may allow them to temporarily support firefighting efforts without jeopardizing their primary jobs. The bill establishes a clear, time-limited framework for this volunteer service during critical fire events. It does not alter existing employment terms but provides a structured pathway for workforce mobilization in crisis situations.
