AI Summary
This bill, the Legacy Roads and Trails Act, establishes the Forest Service Legacy Roads and Trails Remediation Program to address storm damage, restore waterways and aquatic habitats, and decommission or convert unnecessary roads and trails on National Forest System lands. The program prioritizes projects that protect water quality, drinking water sources, and the habitats of threatened or endangered species. The bill requires the Secretary of Agriculture to identify the minimum necessary road system and unneeded roads within 4 years, and then decommission or convert those unneeded roads as soon as practicable. The bill authorizes $100 million per year from 2020 through 2030 to carry out these activities.
