Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would let the Secretary of Agriculture, through the Chief of the Forest Service, enter into contracts, grants, or agreements to carry out certain ecosystem restoration activities under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. These deals could be made with State forestry agencies, local private or nonprofit groups, colleges and universities, Indian Tribes, and multistate coalitions. The work covered would be collecting and maintaining native seeds, including from managed seed orchards, and growing seedlings for replanting. The bill would also add native seed collection and seedling production to the Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration Program, and add colleges and universities to the list of partners in that program.
