Bill overview
This bill aims to streamline wildfire prevention efforts in California’s timberlands by allowing specific fuels reduction projects to bypass some of the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). It would authorize these projects, funded with public money, to create a timber harvesting plan instead of conducting a full CEQA review. This change would regulate these projects as timber operations, creating a new state-mandated program for local agencies.
