If enacted, this bill would update current statutes by appropriating $5,000,000 from the state General Fund for fiscal year 2025-2026 specifically to the Arizona Department of Forestry and Fire Management (DFFM) to support the continuation of the White Mountain Fire Program. This appropriation is a new insertion into the existing legal framework, which currently does not specify this funding.

The bill introduces new language that clearly states the purpose of the appropriation and the specific amount allocated to DFFM for the White Mountain Fire Program. This addition aims to enhance the state's capacity for wildfire management and prevention, reflecting a commitment to addressing fire-related challenges in the region. The current law remains unchanged except for this new financial provision.
