United States

H.R. 204

ACRES Act

Energy and Natural Resources Committee, Agriculture Committee, Natural Resources Committee · Rep. Thomas Tiffany (R-WI)

The bill would require the Agriculture and Interior departments to accurately report each year how many acres of federal land they treated to reduce wildfire risk, and to establish standardized methods for tracking and verifying the accuracy of this data. It would also mandate analysis of how effective these hazardous fuels reduction activities are at preventing wildfires, with special attention to distinguishing work done in areas where wilderness meets developed communities, and would require a government study on how well these new requirements work.[AI-Generated]
