Oliver Fire‐Rescue is a volunteer fire department serving the Town of Oliver and the Rural Fire Protection District. It also serves the Osoyoos Indian Band, and offers extrication services for rural areas such as Mount Baldy and the McKinney region. The department also offers Mutual Aid to neighboring communities and Wildfire support to BC Wildfire Services.
The Command Structure consists of a Fire Chief, Deputy Chief, and six Officers. On average, the Department has just over 30 active members.
