        <text><![CDATA[<p><strong>Save Our Sequoias Act</strong></p><p>This bill provides for the conservation of giant sequoia trees (<em>Sequoiadendron giganteum</em>) in California.</p><p>Specifically, it provides statutory authority for the Giant Sequoia Lands Coalition and outlines the coalition's duties. The coalition must submit a Giant Sequoia Health and Resiliency Assessment and annually update it. The information from the assessment must be made available so the information can be integrated into certain other plans. The coalition must also create and maintain a website that contains the assessment, educational materials, searchable information about individual giant sequoia groves, and a searchable database to track the status and costs of reforestation and rehabilitation activities. Finally, the coalition&nbsp;must also have an annual public meeting.</p><p>In addition, the bill declares an emergency on certain public lands and allows officials to carry out protection plans during the emergency to respond to the threat of wildfires, insects, and drought. The emergency expires after seven years.</p><p>The Department of the Interior must develop and implement a Giant Sequoia Reforestation and Rehabilitation Strategy. Interior and the Forest Service must&nbsp;develop and implement a strategy for monitoring insects in giant sequoia groves with a high-risk or previous history of insect infestations. They must also&nbsp;enter into&nbsp;public-private partnerships to deploy technology to assist in monitoring infestations.</p><p>Finally, the bill establishes a variety of programs and funds to support the conservation of giant sequoias.</p>]]></text>
