纽森签署 SB 894：加州设立野火韧性贷款计划，低息贷款助屋主做房屋硬化与防火隔离带
萨克拉门托10月13日——据圣莫尼卡当地媒体10月13日报道，加州州长加文·纽森已签署州参议员本·艾伦（Ben Allen，民主党，帕利塞兹）提出的 SB 894 法案——《野火缓解可负担法案》（Wildfire Mitigation Affordability Act），设立州支持的低息贷款计划，帮助业主支付房屋硬化与可防御空间（defensible space）改造费用。
新计划名为「加州野火韧性贷款计划」（California Wildfire Resilience Loan Program），由州财政部长办公室负责实施，模式参照加州现有的 GoGreen 能源融资平台——该平台此前已协助居民为节能改造融资。法案在州议会以跨党派一致支持通过。
艾伦表示，新计划要让屋主与企业能以低息融资加固房产、在下一次野火来临前降低风险，并有助于稳定加州的保险市场。法案发起方 Megafire Action 的加州主任埃里克·霍恩（Eric Horne）称这是加州人的一次「历史性胜利」。报道援引加州大学伯克利分校一项研究指出，具备关键房屋硬化与可防御空间特征的建筑，在野火中存活的概率是未做任何缓解措施建筑的两倍以上。

Newsom Signs SB 894 Creating California Wildfire Resilience Loan Program for Home Hardening
SACRAMENTO, Oct. 13 — California Governor Gavin Newsom has signed SB 894, the Wildfire Mitigation Affordability Act, creating a state-backed, low-interest loan program to help property owners pay for home hardening and defensible-space improvements, the Santa Monica Daily Press reported on Tuesday.
The measure, authored by state Sen. Ben Allen, D-Pacific Palisades, passed the Legislature with unanimous bipartisan support. The resulting California Wildfire Resilience Loan Program will be implemented by the State Treasurer's Office and is modeled on California's GoGreen energy-finance platform, which has helped residents finance energy-efficient upgrades.
Allen said the program will help homeowners and businesses access low-interest financing to harden their properties and create defensible space before the next wildfire, and that such steps are needed for safer communities and a more stable insurance market. Eric Horne, California director at Megafire Action, the bill's sponsor, called the law a historic win for Californians. The report cited a UC Berkeley study finding that structures with key home-hardening and defensible-space features were more than twice as likely to survive a wildfire as those without mitigation work.
