California Insurance Commissioner Ricardo Lara published a bulletin announcing a moratorium on cancellations and non-renewals of residential property insurance policies that meet certain criteria following the Thompson fire in Northern California.

The moratorium is in effect for one year after the declaration of a state of emergency.
