BRUSH Fires Act

Sponsored By: Representative Min, Dave [D-CA-47]

In Committee

Summary

Shrubland wildfire mitigation is the focus. This bill would require the Forest Service to study which fuels treatments and policies best reduce wildfire risk and ember ignitions in dry shrub ecosystems.

Show full summary
  • Families and communities near shrublands would get clearer, research-based guidance on reducing ember-related vulnerabilities to homes, roadways, and other structures.
  • Wildland fire managers and the Forest Service would get an evaluation of hazardous fuels management, ember-prevention protocols, and the weather, season, and terrain conditions that affect each method. The study must be completed within one year and the report released within 90 days of completion.
  • Federal agencies, non-Federal partners, and land managers would be asked to coordinate and share expertise so best practices and barriers to implementation are identified for future policy and operational decisions.
