The bill aims to improve fire safety by requiring the state fire marshal to develop a home hardening certification program that identifies measures to reduce the risk of loss during a fire. The program will outline home hardening measures such as defensible space that can be implemented during renovation or property improvement projects. The program will be developed and implemented by the state fire marshal's wildfire mitigation advisory committee. The bill also authorizes the office of the state fire marshal to expend funds from a special revolving fund to develop the program.
