Bill overview
This bill amends California’s emergency laws to include landslides as a condition that can trigger a state of emergency or local emergency. Currently, these emergencies are defined by factors like earthquakes, floods, and wildfires. By adding landslides, the bill aims to better equip local and state governments to respond to this increasingly common natural hazard, particularly in light of climate change.
