June 25, 2016 - On Thursday, California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE) Director Ken Pimlott testified before the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee in support of the Wildfire Budgeting, Response, and Forest Management Act of 2015, the committee’s legislation to revamp wildfire budget mechanisms and streamline forest management projects.  Director Pimlott testified that California’s longer, more dangerous fire season is a result of the exceptional drought and the subsequent 66-million dead trees in the state.  

He detailed the Governor’s emergency actions on dead and dying trees, stressing the need for more funding for the removal and clearing of these hazardous fuels.  Pimlott also expressed CAL FIRE’s support for a reform to wildfire budgeting, the need to streamline the NEPA process to accelerate collaboratively planned forest projects, and the need for federal assistance for state and local fire maps.  Additionally, he expressed the need for quick action as the 2016 fire season has already begun; CAL FIRE has engaged 2,000 fires since January 1, 2016.   

Chief Pimlott’s testimony is the latest in CAL FIRE’s efforts to reduce wildfire risk in California, as the agency has been working throughout 2016 across jurisdictions to mitigate the tree mortality emergency as well as promote and engage in forest health projects.  CAL FIRE has actively engaged with RCRC and RCRC member counties most impacted by the current, unprecedented tree die-off to provide equipment and resources to expedite tree removal projects, as well as to provide grant funding for rural communities where hazard trees pose an immediate threat.
