          <text>&lt;p&gt;This bill establishes circumstances under which reinitiation of consultation related to endangered or threatened species is not required under a land and resource management plan or a land use plan.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Specifically, the bill prohibits a land and resource management plan for a unit of the National Forest System or a land use plan for public lands from&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;being considered to be a continuing federal agency action, or &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;constituting a discretionary federal involvement or control for a distinct federal purpose.&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;This makes certain consultation requirements related to endangered or threatened species inapplicable to such plans.&lt;/p&gt;</text>
