Good question. IIRC the MEL funding (Most Efficient Level) is reevaluated every 5 years.
I am out of the game now and am not privy to the current planning. The recent fire seasons should definitely change the cost versus benefit analysis.
At least the states and federal legislatures are starting to pay attention to the issue now. Wildfires used to be a low priority. Not only California, but other states are now letting loose the purse strings.
