Bill overview
This bill extends a program designed to help qualified entities, such as local governments and nonprofits, assess and educate property owners about wildfire prevention measures. It aims to improve defensible space and home hardening efforts in California by creating a statewide training program and a common reporting platform for data collection. The bill also adds nonprofit wildfire resiliency organizations to the list of qualified entities and allows these entities to assess compliance with defensible space requirements in both state and local responsibility areas. Furthermore, it ensures data privacy and limits how the department can use collected information.
