Oklahoma Fire Department Earns Highest ISO Protection Classification
The Norman Fire Department in Oklahoma has achieved the highest Public Protection Classification (PPC) rating from the Insurance Service Office (ISO), the insurance department reported.
The ISO rates over 50,000 fire departments in the United States. Less than 1% of them have a Class 1 rating, making the Norman Fire Department one of only 388 preeminent ISO rated fire departments in the nation.
The Oklahoma Insurance Department (OID) offers consulting and educational resources for fire departments and communities interested in improving their PPC rating and mitigating fire risk.
Out of more than 740 fire departments in Oklahoma, only five have earned the Class 1 rating. Norman now joins Oklahoma City, Midwest City, Lawton, Tulsa and Broken Arrow in the Class 1 rating. This top rating may help residents and businesses save on insurance premiums gradually. The new rating takes effect on March 1, 2021
