California is actively working to reduce wildfire risks near critical infrastructure, such as the Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant, by creating fuel breaks through interagency collaborations with federal agencies. These efforts aim to address federal underinvestment in fuels management and bridge staffing and data gaps caused by federal budget cuts, which have hindered wildfire prevention and forest health initiatives. Despite increased state funding and partnerships, challenges remain due to personnel shortages, lagging data collection, and reduced federal support, impacting California's capacity to manage wildfire risks effectively.
