Requiring timely reimbursement of state agencies and local jurisdictions mobilized under the Washington state fire services mobilization plan.

HB 2397 requires the Washington State Patrol to create procedures ensuring state agencies and local jurisdictions (like counties or cities) that are mobilized under the state fire services plan for wildfire response receive reimbursement within 60 days. This replaces the vague "as timely as possible" standard with a specific deadline, using documentation requirements from the fire services plan. The bill mandates collaboration with the Office of Financial Management and the Washington Military Department to establish these reimbursement processes. It directly affects fire service agencies and local governments that deploy resources during wildfire incidents.
