The closest thing in California would be Fire Marshals, Fire/Arson Investigators and CalFire Prevention officers. All of these have law enforcement powers but they are more related to arson investigation, enforcement of fire codes, etc.

It all depends on the State you are talking about....Here in NY "Fire Police" are actually categorized as "Peace Officers"...But for the specifics you would have to go to the regs....Paul
