NASEO Wildfire Forum Webinar Series: Legislation and Policy Diffusion

NASEO, in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Cybersecurity, Energy Security, and Emergency Response (DOE CESER), host quarterly wildfire forums for State and Territory Energy Offices and State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial (SLTT) partners, with the fourth and final webinar taking place on February 24, 2026. These forums feature presentations from subject matter experts and included discussions with states to explore best practices and guidance for those facing emerging wildfire threats. The forums enable State Energy Offices to proactively address wildfire risks, develop response capabilities, and engage partners for collective preparedness. The fourth and final webinar recapped the range of wildfire-related legislation across the country. Speakers explored the policy diffusion observed between states, particularly the west-to-east trends, and how this legislation had driven the development of comprehensive, statewide approaches to prepare for, respond to, and recover from wildfires. The webinar also showcased how states could leverage these best practices to inform planning and decision-making in their own jurisdictions.
