The Legislature asked Insurance Commissioner Patty Kuderer and Public Lands Commissioner Dave Upthegrove to co-chair a work group to study and issue a report on wildfire mitigation and resiliency standards.
The report, which includes recommendations about wildfire risk score transparency and a grant program to help residential properties resist wildfire loss, was delivered to the Legislature on December 1.
In this episode of the OIC Answers podcast, two of the architects of the report — OIC policy analyst Lauren Burnes and DNR advisor to the state forester Robyn Whitney — discuss what went into the report, what the recommendations mean, and what happens next.
