AB 372: Office of Emergency Services: state matching funds: water system infrastructure improvements.

This bill establishes a program to improve water system infrastructure in urban wildland interface communities to increase wildfire resilience. The program will distribute state matching funds to communities in high fire hazard severity zones or very high fire hazard severity zones. The program will require coordination with various state entities, including the Department of Water Resources and the Office of the State Fire Marshal. The program will prioritize the distribution of funds based on specified criteria, such as community needs and infrastructure conditions. The goal of the program is to help communities prepare for and respond to wildfires, and to reduce the risk of damage to water systems.
