Sounds like a federal issue.
Not that I love the idiot government here, but the President should be a bit better informed. Plenty of blame for the state, but calling out CA because of FEDERAL mismanagement of lands?
This has been the routine since I was a kid living in LA and the Antelope Valley.
-No fire breaks = fire in the summer/fall due to dry conditions.
-Heavy rains in the winter leads to mud slides in the spring.
-Spring rains and ash from the fires means new growth in the late spring/early summer.
-Rinse and Repeat.
Gov. Brown started it in the 70's and has redoubled his efforts. And California burns.
Isn’t it interesting that yearly fires are only a problem within California. With the millions of acres throughout the country of national forests, its California that seems to consistently have the problems. Why is that?
