I read something the other day that suggested that a lot of the land where there was heavy fuel load was federal. But I can't remember where I read that, so MOO.
In his fact-check article, Gavin Newsom pointed out that the federal govt owns 57% of the forest land in California. The US Forest Service is responsible for that land.
The state of California owns 3% of the forest land in California.
The rest is owned by cities, counties, Native American tribes and private holders. Link

President-elect Donald Trump and some social media users and pundits blamed Los Angeles’ deadly fires on California Gov. Gavin Newsom, saying the Democrat’s environmental policies enabled the blazes’ danger and wreckage.
