AI Summary

This bill reauthorizes the Joint Chiefs Landscape Restoration Partnership Program, a collaborative initiative between the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and the Forest Service aimed at improving forest and land management. The bill expands the program's scope by adding new purposes, such as wildfire recovery and enhancing soil, water, and natural resources. It requires the NRCS Chief to consider Forest Service management plans and collaborate on forestry science using the best available research. The bill also modifies existing provisions to include post-wildfire impact assessments and align project priorities with state forest action plans or similar state-level environmental planning documents. Additionally, the bill ensures that program activities remain consistent with existing Forest Service regulations regarding roadless areas and extends the program's authorization through 2031, providing continued support for landscape conservation and restoration efforts across the United States.
