Bill 119 hr 598, also known as the "Forest and Rangeland Renewable Resources Planning Act Amendment Act," aims to amend the Forest and Rangeland Renewable Resources Planning Act of 1974 and the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976. The main purpose of this bill is to exempt the Secretary of Agriculture and the Secretary of the Interior from the requirement to reinitiate consultation on a land management plan or land use plan under certain circumstances.

The bill specifies that consultation on a land management plan or land use plan is not required to be reinitiated if the plan is consistent with the Endangered Species Act and the National Environmental Policy Act. This exemption is intended to streamline the planning process and reduce administrative burdens on the Secretaries of Agriculture and the Interior.

In addition to the exemption from reinitiating consultation, the bill also includes provisions for other purposes related to forest and rangeland management. These provisions are aimed at improving the efficiency and effectiveness of land management planning processes while still ensuring compliance with environmental laws and regulations. Overall, Bill 119 hr 598 seeks to provide flexibility to the Secretaries of Agriculture and the Interior in managing forest and rangeland resources, while also maintaining environmental protections and compliance with relevant laws.
