CALIFORNIA – Governor Gavin Newsom issued an executive order to support wildfire response and recovery.

The governor’s office says it’s to help in the aftermath of the Thompson Fire in Butte County, the Park Fire in Butte and Tehama counties, as well as fires in southern California.

The executive order expedites debris removal and cleanup from the Borel, Park, and Thompson Fires and waives work hour limitations for retired workers who returned to duty to help during the firefight.
