Sen. Bill Dodd has introduced SB 1014, Wildfire Safety: The California Wildfire Mitigation Strategic Planning Act. This pro-consumer protection bill would require the deputy director, on or before Jan. 1, 2026, and every three years thereafter, to prepare a Wildfire Risk Mitigation Planning Framework sufficient to quantitatively evaluate wildfire risk mitigation action.
The legislation also requires the deputy director, on or before April 1, 2026, and every three years thereafter, to prepare a Wildfire Risk Baseline and Forecast for the state delineated on a statewide level and by county. The bill would require the forecast to include geographic specificity as determined by the deputy director to be sufficient to evaluate targeted wildfire risk mitigation actions.
The bill has yet to be scheduled for a public hearing.
