Can a $20M liability fund encourage more ‘good fire’ in California?

Three years ago, I overheard a conversation of three CalFire employees on the way up to Tahoe.

The topic of the discussion was that "some" fire is desirable. And then I remember what the Chief said, and I'm roughly paraphrasing - "People tend to forget that CalFire's charter is to extinguish fires. [...]", and then hinting that unless that charter changes, more fuel will build up over time.
