The Alameda County Livestock Pass program provides a uniform way of identifying commercial livestock producers, owner-operators and managers to firefighting personnel, law enforcement officers, and other emergency personnel. Possession of a Livestock Pass during a wildfire or a similar disaster may allow the rancher limited emergency access to restricted areas for the purposes of:
- Feeding, watering, or caring for livestock sheltering in place
- Evacuating livestock
A fire safety training is required to participate in the Livestock Pass Program. This training class will be provided by CAL FIRE. This training must be completed prior to receiving your Livestock Pass. If you have already attended the CAL FIRE training in another County, this requirement is met. Provide proof of training attendance along with the required Livestock Pass documents and we will issue your Alameda County Livestock Pass. For those attending the training, passes will be issued at the meeting.
Please include:
- Driver's License,
- maps of all lands owned or managed, including parcels in neighboring counties, by the applicant for which disaster access is sought.
- And one document from the list below:
- An operator identification number or restricted materials permit issued by an Agricultural Commissioner.
- Internal Revenue Service Schedule F (Form 1040) attesting to the applicant's Profit or Loss from Farming.
- Assessor's parcel numbers confirming agricultural zoning for property(ies) upon which access is sought.
- Agricultural land lease documentation.
- Documentation attesting to the applicant's enrollment in a Williamson Act.
- Documentation from the United States Department of Agriculture Farm Service Agency attesting that the applicant is a commercial livestock producer.
- Current registration of a livestock brand with the Bureau of Livestock Identification.
