It may be cold and wet, but we continue to monitor and reduce wildfire risks. In December, we hosted California Natural Resources Agency Secretary Wade Crowfoot and State Senator Nancy Skinner for a tour of two Regional Parks hit hard by Sudden Tree Die-Off. So far, we have identified 1,500 acres of tree die-off in parks – caused by the extreme drought and changing climate. Dead standing trees burn hotter and faster, and can cast embers far ahead of the original fire, igniting potentially dangerous new fires.
