        watersheds;
            (6) effective ecosystem management--
                    (A) integrates ecological principles and economic 
                and social factors; and
                    (B) safeguards ecological sustainability, 
                biodiversity, and productivity;
            (7) Federal land management activities on National Forest 
        System land are affecting ecosystems that encompass National 
        Forest System land and tribal land;
            (8) collaborative planning and management between Indian 
        tribes and the Forest Service needs to be strengthened;
            (9) management practices on National Forest System land 
        can--
                    (A) adversely affect tribal trust, cultural, 
                religious, and traditional resources on National Forest 
                System land; and
                    (B) place tribal land and resources at risk;
            (10) Indian tribal land managers and National Forest System 
        land managers have shared interests in maintaining the health 
        of the forests and in coordinating and sustaining the timber 
        supply from National Forest System land and tribal trust land 
        in order to jointly contribute to the economic stability of 
        local, timber-dependent communities;
            (11) cross-boundary management collaboration is needed to 
        address forest health emergencies that currently exist on 
        Federal and tribal forest land because of substantial areas of 
        dead and dying trees resulting from drought, insects, fire, 
        windstorm, or other causes;
            (12) tribal communities possess unique traditional 
        knowledge and technical expertise that can provide valuable 
        insight and guidance in the management of land and resources 
        contained within the National Forest System;
            (13) the Forest Service lacks comprehensive authorities to 
        work with tribal neighbors on collaborative or other issues;
            (14)(A) in recognition of that goal, in October 1999, the 
        Chief Operating Officer of the Forest Service commissioned a 
        National Tribal Relations Program Task Force to develop 
        recommendations to improve working relationships with Indian 
        tribes; and
            (B) the Task Force issued a final report in August 2000, 
        including administrative and legislative recommendations on 
        which this title is based;
            (15) Indian tribes and National Forests would benefit from 
        improved coordination and integration in application of 
        wildland fire resources, including Native American fire crews; 
        and
            (16) the Forest and Rangeland Renewable Resources Research 
        Act of 1978 (16 U.S.C. 1600 et seq.) does not contain specific 
        authority for the Secretary to enter into cooperative research 
        and development agreements with tribal governments.
