SUBJECT WHAT CAUSES FIRE DELIBERATELY AVOIDED.
Goats Are the Answer
The best fire prevention squad is a herd of goats
For some time my brother on Maui has kept a herd of goats, which graze the vegetation on the property around his house, thereby reducing the wildfire risk. Goats will eat just about any kind of vegetation, including spiky and noxious weeds.
They are also charming and entertaining creatures, much loved by (human) kids. ...
It’s time for Los Angeles County to bring some goat herds into the area to reduce the brushy fuel loads that are such a menace to life and property when conditions are dry and windy.

My hood in Tri Valley hire a local goat herder to graze out the brush in the arroyo by the hood once a year with an electrified fencing to keep them from roaming away from the job site. They do an excellent job and provide stinky entertainment for several days. They come with big dog herders and protectors, too.
The herder comes with a small mobile home for his stuff, and may sleep there too
I'd like to know more details about exactly what water was turned on and which emergency powers were used to do it.

Only from North Central Ca. Only way would be CA Aqueduct. Even then it doesn’t go directly to LA county, I think the Terminus around LA county is Lake Castaic.
I learned an interesting thing though - goats are the only thing that will eliminate kudzu. Their digestion is so good that their poop leaves nothing that can regrow. Literally better than round up.

Interesting. I remember in Azores that goats were used to keep lawns trimmed. They could eat anything except bread. One of the goats died soon after someone who did not know that fed him a slice.
A newly proposed California state law would create a new pathway for victims of wildfires and insurance companies to sue oil companies over climate change.

Wow, you can confirm "no tubs or sinks" from that postcard-sized picture of a bird-eye view?
most tubs are not porcelain but either cast iron or plastic (fiberglass?).

Around here residential bathtubs are porcelain coated steel or fiberglass.

I would expect that after 3 weeks it would have burned itself out on its own.
