This bill would update and extend the Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration Program through 2034. It would add standardized monitoring questions and indicators, require a federal staffing plan to support collaboratives, and allow proposals focused on forest health, wildfire risk, watershed health, and drinking water sources. It would also recognize certain partnership and implementation tools, including conservation finance and good neighbor agreements.
The bill could change which forest restoration proposals the program considers and how federal staff support collaborative groups. It does not describe direct services or benefits for individuals.
The bill changes a specified program amount from $4 million to $8 million. It does not state a total cost for the bill.
