(a)Congress
finds that—
(1)forest
restoration would—
(A)improve the
habitats of fish and wildlife, including several species of fish and wildlife
that are threatened or are otherwise of concern;
(B)reduce wildfire
management costs by reestablishing natural fire regimes outside of a
wildland-urban interface;
(C)improve the
protection of property and homes within the wildland-urban interface;
and
(D)demonstrate the
manner by which—
(i)such actions can
help achieve ecological and watershed health objectives; and
(ii)the use of
forest restoration byproducts can offset treatment costs while benefitting
local rural economies; and
(2)this Act—
(A)encourages the
economic, social, and ecological sustainability of the region and nearby
communities; and
(B)promotes
collaboration and recognizes the positive relationship between wilderness,
forest restoration activities, and communities by addressing multiple
activities across a landscape, including—
(i)the
implementation of forest restoration;
(ii)the development
of biomass utilization systems that include combined heat and power generation;
and
(iii)the permanent
protection of backcountry areas.
(b)The purposes of this Act are—
(1)to sustain the
economic development and recreational use of National Forest System land and
other public land in Montana;
(2)to reduce
gridlock and promote local cooperation and collaboration in the management of
forest land;
(3)to enhance forest
diversity and produce wood fiber—
(A)to accomplish
habitat restoration through the use of stewardship forestry practices;
and
(B)to generate a
more predictable flow of wood products for local communities of the
State;
(4)to increase fish
and wildlife populations and better protect and restore key watersheds and
habitats;
(5)to improve the
management of wildland fires;
(6)to reduce the
size and severity of uncharacteristic fires on forest land to enhance the
protection of private land, homes, and communities located adjacent to the
affected forest land;
(7)to permanently
protect and enhance motorized recreational opportunities in the
Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest, the Lolo National Forest, and the
Kootenai National Forest; and
(8)to protect and
enhance the wild heritage and backcountry traditions of the State
through—
(A)the addition of
certain land to the National Wilderness Preservation System; and
(B)the management of
other land in a manner that preserves existing primitive and semiprimitive
recreational activities.
