Bill Summary

An act to amend Section 8586.7 of the Government Code, relating to wildfires.

AI Summary

This bill would require the Wildfire Forecast and Threat Intelligence Integration Center, a state hub for wildfire forecasting and threat analysis led by the Office of Emergency Services and the Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, to proactively recommend whether a state of emergency or local emergency should be proclaimed when extreme, life-threatening fire weather forecasts are issued. Existing law already allows the Governor or local officials to proclaim emergencies under such conditions, but this bill adds a new directive for the Center to provide these recommendations based on its analysis of fire weather data and threat indicators.
