Public Records
Public Records Request Policy
The Department of Forestry and Fire Management requires a public records request form be filled out for all applicable requests. As required by ARS Title 39, Ch. 1, Part 2, DFFM is required to disclose public records in a reasonable amount of time after a request for disclosure has been made and documented on the agency form. DFFM, however, may deny a request to disclose all or part of a public record when the material requested contains information that is protected from disclosure by federal or state statute. Please note: documents and materials destroyed pursuant to the agency's retention schedule are not public records subject to disclosure.
*** For Office of the State Fire Marshal record requests regarding private structure investigation reports, please contact that local jurisdiction *** Example: For a report at 123 Maple Street, Phoenix, Arizona, please contact the Phoenix Fire Department
