Cal. Pub. Res. Code § 4771.6 — California Wildfire and Forest Resilience Action Plan Goals is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.

(a) On or before June 30, 2025, the task force, in consultation with the Range Management Advisory Committee of the State Board of Forestry and Fire Protection, established pursuant to Section 741, shall develop a strategic action plan to expand the use of prescribed grazing to support the state’s efforts to increase the pace and scale of wildfire and forest resilience activities and strengthen the protection of communities and reduce their fire risk.

(b) The plan shall include a focus on reducing wildfire risk in and near “fire-threatened communities,” as that term is defined in paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) of Section 4124.5.

(c) The strategic action plan shall include a component on monitoring and evaluating the effectiveness of prescribed grazing on reducing wildfire risk, including near communities, and the impacts of prescribed grazing on forest and wildland health, promoting the diversity and abundance of native species, and decreasing the abundance of invasive species.

(d) The task force shall consider incorporating prescribed grazing in the January 1, 2026, update to the state’s “Wildfire and Forest Resilience Action Plan.”
