What AB 591 does, verified February 3, 2026

The bill aims to facilitate disaster response and recovery by adding public works resources to the list of aid that can be rendered during state emergencies. It requires the development and adoption of a public works emergency mutual aid plan to ensure the efficient mobilization of these resources. The bill also mandates that local public works agencies participate in this plan. If the commission on state mandates determines that the bill contains mandated costs, reimbursement will be made to local agencies and school districts. This bill is intended to support the state's emergency services and make it easier for public works agencies to provide critical resources during emergencies.
