Climate change: preparedness.

Abstract

Existing law establishes the Natural Resources Agency and requires the Secretary of the Natural Resources Agency to develop a strategic vision for the Department of Fish and Wildlife and the Fish and Game Commission that includes reforms necessary to take on the challenges of the 21st century, including, among other things, climate change and adaptation. Existing law establishes the Strategic Growth Council and requires the council to, among other things, identify and review activities and funding programs of its member state agencies that may be coordinated to, among other things, meet the goals of the California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006. This bill would require the Natural Resources Agency on or before July 1, 2018, and every 3 years thereafter, to prepare a California climate risk assessment that provides original research on regionally appropriate climate risk vulnerabilities, risk management options, and other needed scientific research to support California's development of informed climate policy and actions to address climate change. The bill would require the Natural Resources Agency, on or before January 1, 2019, and every 5 years thereafter, to update the Safeguarding California Plan to reduce risks to California from the impacts of climate change. The bill would require the Office of Planning and Research on or before January 1, 2016, and every 5 years thereafter, to develop Infrastructure Resilience Guidelines to integrate climate risks into capital outlay and infrastructure planning and investment. The bill would require the Strategic Growth Council to report specified findings relating to climate change to the appropriate state agencies, departments, commissions, and boards that make decisions related to capital funding. The bill would also require the council to report to the Legislature on those findings so that the Legislature may consider further action that may be necessary to address climate change in the state.
