Amends the Joint Chiefs Landscape Restoration Partnership program to add wildfire recovery and soil/water enhancement as explicit program purposes, require closer coordination between the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and the Forest Service, and extend certain program text through 2029. It also updates wording in several subsections and a regulatory reference to align program operations with Forest Service management plans and shared forestry science and practice.
The change directs the NRCS Chief to consider Forest Service management plans when carrying out the program and to collaborate on forestry science and practice, but does not itself appropriate new funds; it mainly adjusts program goals, agency coordination, regulatory citations, and the program time frame.
