Contra Costa County Fire Protection District (CCCFPD) is a fire department that is responsible for providing fire protection in Contra Costa County. The district was created on December 29, 1964 by the Central and Mt. Diablo Fire Protection Districts.[1]
Since the 2022 annexation of East Contra Costa Fire Protection District, the district has three fire stations in East County with three fire fighters each.[2] Its territory covers 247 square miles and includes two cities, plus much of the county's unincorporated area. The incorporated cities are Brentwood and Oakley. Unincorporated community areas are Discovery Bay, Byron, Knightsen, and Bethel Island.
As of 2025, the district claims that it serves a population of over 1,000,000. Financial support is primarily from property taxes collected by the county. The district announced it will build two new fire stations in Brentwood.[3]
