The 2024-25 Budget: CalFire—Implementation of a 66-Hour Workweek
Should it fund the workweek change, the Legislature could use it as an opportunity to hold CalFire more accountable for achieving demonstrable wildfire resilience co‑benefits by requiring more detailed reporting on (1) how CalFire firefighters spend their time, including the amount of time spent on wildfire resilience activities, and (2) the number of acres treated by CalFire firefighters. 
Recommendations
Evaluate Whether Adopting New 66‑Hour Workweek Is Affordable at This Time Given Significant General Fund Shortfall. We recommend the Legislature not treat the decision about whether to fund the implementation of a 66‑hour workweek as one that has already been made. As noted, the MOU was structured to provide the state with the flexibility to weigh the state’s fiscal condition when determining whether or not implementation of this change should proceed—including by explicitly making it subject to a legislative appropriation and by including language that negotiations over the provision could be reopened if the Governor declares a fiscal emergency. We therefore recommend the Legislature decide whether or not to fund this change in 2024‑25 based on its evaluation of the merits of the proposal, taking into account the information it now has on the costs of implementing the change and the condition of the General Fund. Given the state budget deficit, we recommend the Legislature reassess all its previous budget commitments—including those the Governor proposes revising and those he would leave intact—to determine whether they still are among its highest priorities for available funding.
Notably, given the recent deterioration in the condition of the General Fund, we expect that difficult budget decisions may lie ahead for the Legislature. Specifically, based on current revenue projections, to bring the budget into balance over the next few years, the Legislature will have to adopt some combination of ongoing program reductions and tax increases totaling at least $30 billion. Accordingly, we recommend that the Legislature weigh whether the benefits of the 66‑hour workweek proposal are sufficient to prioritize funding it beginning in 2024‑25, recognizing that doing so likely will come at the expense of cutting other existing ongoing commitments more deeply and/or raising taxes more significantly than would otherwise be the case.

Forest Entomology and Pathology Program

 Forest Entomology and Pathology Program
Promoting forest health and protecting the State's forest resources against disease and pests.

Forest pests (insects and diseases) annually destroy 10 times the volume of timber lost due to forest fires. Native bark and engraver beetles have caused extensive conifer mortality throughout California's forest following years of severe and widespread drought. Invasive beetle species including the GoldSpotted Oak Borer (GSOB), Invasive Shot Hole Borers (ISHB), and Mediterranean Oak Borer (MOB) are killing both native and landscape trees. The Emerald Ash Borer (AEB), which is recently established in Oregon, is poised to decimate both native and landscape ash trees throughout California. The introduced Pitch Canker Disease has attacked Monterey pine along the central coast. Sudden Oak Death, caused by Phytophthora ramorum, has been found in 14 counties in California and has killed thousands of oaks. CAL FIRE's forest pest specialists help protect the state's forest resources from native and introduced pests, conduct surveys and provide technical assistance to private forest landowners, and promote forest health on all forest lands. The introduced pitch canker pathogen has attacked Monterey, Bishop, and Shore pines along the central and north coast.

GO - EVACUATION GUIDE


Give your household the best chance of surviving a wildfire by being ready to go and evacuating early. Being ready to go also means knowing when to evacuate and what to do if you become trapped.        

 Before evacuation is necessary, follow these steps before it's time to GO!

Create a Wildfire Action Plan for your family. Being ready to go also means knowing when to evacuate and what to do if you become trapped.

Complete the pre-evacuation preparation steps (only if time allows) to increase your home’s defense.

Make sure you sign up for text alerts about wildfires in your area, and know your community’s emergency response plan, evacuation orders and evacuation centers.

 When immediate evacuation is necessary, follow these steps as soon as possible to get ready to GO!

Review your Evacuation Plan Checklist.

Ensure your Emergency Supply Kit/Evacuation Bag is in your vehicle.

Cover-up to protect against heat and flying embers. Wear long pants, long sleeve shirt, heavy shoes/boots, cap, dry bandanna for face cover, goggles or glasses. 100% cotton is preferable.

Locate your pets and take them with you.

Tech Today: NASA Helps Find Where the Wildfires Are - NASA
San Diego-based Technosylva Inc. provides firefighters with a wildfire monitoring service that combines all these technologies. The company also uses other NASA fire data resources compiled by the agency’s Ames Research Center in Silicon Valley to assist during the fire season and beyond.

Satellite imagery helps Technosylva’s Wildfire Analyst identify areas previously burned by wildfire to eliminate those areas without fuel like leaves or grasses (black circles) and pinpoint areas different types of available fuel (colored circles).
Credit: Technosylva Inc.

Technosylva uses data fusion, which integrates multiple data sources from climate, weather, landscapes, and human infrastructure, to develop a complete picture of current fire risks. Before fire season begins, these efforts help develop more resilient landscapes to make communities safer. During the fire season, models predict how fires will spread, and provide real-time equipment and personnel tracking across vast tracts of land.

During the 2017 Las Máquinas wildfire in Chile – a fire so large the only way to view the perimeter was from space – Technosylva assisted in firefighting efforts by providing satellite data to help identify new hot spots and guided containment efforts.
