Comparing Notes: A Cross-Jurisdiction Look at Wildfire Mitigation Plans

In this session, Matthew Rolnick traces how wildfire mitigation planning has evolved—from California's SB 901 and SB 1028 legislation to today's public safety power shutoff (PSPS) programs—and compares how states, including Hawaii, Colorado, and Oregon, regulate PSPS as a last-resort tool.

What you'll learn:

• How wildfire mitigation planning has evolved and how utility-caused wildfires compare nationally to individual states

• How to compare how different states regulate and fund PSPS as a mitigation tool, using HData to sort documents by jurisdiction and generate a side-by-side comparison matrix
