If this is a regular thing why don't they put fire breaks in and maintain them, that would limit where the fires can spread to.
Sad news - some of my wife’s relatives affected in Napa - loads of damage - winearies gone up in smoke and 39+ killed known so far and 1000s of properties destroyed. It is Armageddon on Earth.
Oh look out UK - hurricane heading our way early next week. what the hell is happening?

I don’t think their Forestry people have the manpower, meet new or legislative powers to do this except reactively, ie to put out a fire, not prevent it!
They would need BIG funding commitments from the Government to achieve this.
Not saying it’s a bad deal, just explaining why it won’t work.
