Several areas in Penn Valley do not have municipal water fire hydrants for fighting remote fires. If possible it is a good idea to have water storage on your property for fires. Water storage is often in large tanks or cisterns, provides a crucial backup for firefighters (and yourself) when municipal water is unavailable, especially during power outages in wildfire zones, requiring a gas-powered pump and clear access for engines.
