Study resolution on wildfire safety

HJ 62 is a joint resolution requesting an interim study on wildfire prevention and community resilience in Montana. The study will task an interim committee with examining the increasing impacts of wildfires on population centers, the role of land use planning and building materials in fire spread, and the effectiveness of existing state policies. It also seeks to identify potential solutions, including community incentives and statewide regulations, to alleviate wildfire risk. The committee's findings and recommendations will be reported to the 70th Legislature to inform future policy decisions impacting Montanans.
