Is this timely news? If it is, it is more than a week ago.

The grass fire itself is old news.
The point here is that the fire marshal wants to talk to Stanford about fire-safety protocols so this doesn't happen again.
Stanford needs to make sure that their contractors aren't mowing/discing dry grass when a stray spark can easily ignite and start a fire. Also, it appears that the mowing people didn't have basic fire-prevention equipment and supplies.
