ISO Rating 3 The Midway Fire District was recently re-graded by ISO officials and has received a Public Protection Rating of a 3 to be effective September 1, 2008. The previous rating was a 5/9 split class. ISO (Insurance Services Office) is a third party industry funded by U.S. property insurance companies sent in to assess a community's risk and preparedness through the Public Protection Classification (PPC) program. Most insurance companies use the PPC to help establish premiums for fire insurance. Generally speaking, a lower classification resulting from better fire protection, usually results in lower insurance premiums. The PPC program expert staff collect data from 3 key elements of the jurisdiction. The areas evaluated include: the fire department in general, communications, and the water supply available for use. The data is then analyzed and a rating is assessed. Midway Fire District continuously strives to provide quality services to its citizens.
