1 SEC. 2. FINDINGS. 

2 The Congress makes the following findings: 

3 (1) Many areas of undeveloped National Forest 

4 System lands, National Park System lands, and 

5 public lands administered by the Bureau of Land 

6 Management in the States of Idaho, Montana, Or7 egon, Washington, and Wyoming possess out8 standing natural characteristics which give them 

9 high values as wilderness, parks, and wild and scenic 

10 rivers and will, if properly preserved, be an enduring 

11 resource of wilderness, wild land areas, and biodiver12 sity for the benefit of the American people. 

13 (2) The Northern Rockies Bioregion contains 

14 the most diverse array of wild lands remaining south 

15 of Canada, providing sanctuary for a host of species 

16 listed as threatened or endangered under section 

17 4(c) of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 

18 U.S.C. 1533(c)). These national interest public lands 


pamtmann on DSKBC07HB2PROD with BILLS
4 

•HR 1755 IH

1 are among the most popular wild lands in the 

2 United States, embracing greater ecosystems and 

3 national treasures such as the Greater Yellowstone, 

4 Greater Glacier/Northern Continental Divide, Great5 er Hells Canyon/Wallowa, Greater Salmon/Selway, 

6 and Greater Cabinet/Yaak/Selkirk ecosystems. 

7 (3) The natural ecosystems in the Northern 

8 Rockies Bioregion are largely dependent on National 

9 Forest System lands, National Park System lands, 

10 and public lands administered by the Bureau of 

11 Land Management, and the ecological productivity 

12 and diversity of resources these Federal public lands 

13 provide. Conservation of roadless areas on these 

14 public lands, which produces clean water, protects 

15 native fisheries and native flora and fauna, and pro16 vides scenic and recreational qualities, also preserves 

17 options for sustainable economics through activities 

18 such as hunting, fishing, and wilderness-based recre19 ation. 

20 (4) The headwaters of several major river sys21 tems, including the Columbia, Snake, Green, Mis22 souri and Saskatchewan Rivers, originate in the 

23 Northern Rockies Bioregion, and these rivers send 

24 their waters to three different oceans. These waters 

25 are of tremendous economic importance to farming 


pamtmann on DSKBC07HB2PROD with BILLS
5 

•HR 1755 IH

1 and ranching operations, municipal water supplies, 

2 and water-based recreation, including fishing and 

3 boating. Protection of this world class water re4 source will enhance these uses, reduce costs for 

5 water treatment and irrigation, and increase native 

6 fish populations. 

7 (5) The wildlife treasures of the Northern 

8 Rockies are of international significance and contain 

9 remarkably intact large mammalian fauna and rare 

10 and unique plant life. Wildlife habitat fragmentation 

11 due to roadbuilding, timber harvest, mining, oil and 

12 gas exploration, lack of interagency cooperation, and 

13 other activities has severe effects on the wildlife pop14 ulations (including those listed as threatened or en15 dangered under section 4(c) of the Endangered Spe16 cies Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1533(c))) and their 

17 habitat, the water quality, the ancient forests, and 

18 the greater ecosystems of the Northern Rockies Bio19 region. The overemphasis on resource extraction 

20 from National Forest System lands and public lands 

21 administered by the Bureau of Land Management 

22 has compromised ecosystem integrity and detracted 

23 from economic diversification opportunities. Eco24 nomic instability and high unemployment in rural, 


pamtmann on DSKBC07HB2PROD with BILLS
6 

•HR 1755 IH

1 resource-dependent communities is a common result 

2 of overexploitation of these lands. 

3 (6) Continued fragmentation and development 

4 of the remaining roadless and essentially roadless 

5 ecosystems and biological connectors of the Northern 

6 Rockies would cause a loss to the Nation of an en7 tire wild land region and of the only remaining areas 

8 south of Canada still pristine enough to support 

9 populations of caribou, gray wolves, grizzly bears, 

10 anadromous fish, and numerous other rare and en11 dangered plant and animal life all in one intact bio12 region. 

13 (7) Since the 1936 roadless area inventory com14 pleted by Bob Marshall, millions of acres of roadless 

15 wild lands have been developed in the Northern 

16 Rockies. Extensive fragmentation of wild lands and 

17 wildlife habitat has resulted in the listing of several 

18 species as threatened or endangered and reduced the 

19 numbers and range of many others, including anad20 romous fish. 

21 (8) The natural ecosystems of the Northern 

22 Rockies Bioregion also serve as educational and re23 search centers for on-site studies in biology, geology, 

24 astronomy and other sciences. The pristine nature of 

25 the National Forest System lands, National Park

1 System lands, and public lands administered by the 

2 Bureau of Land Management in the Northern Rock3 ies Bioregion helps local communities attract new 

4 residents and businesses based on local quality of 

5 life. 

6 (9) A review of the current situation in the 

7 Northern Rockies has revealed the urgent need for 

8 an ecological reserve system for the Northern Rock9 ies Bioregion, which includes core ecosystem reserve 

10 areas and biological connecting corridors necessary 

11 to ensure wildlife movements and genetic inter12 change between the core reserve areas. Wildlife free13 dom of movement has always been essential to the 

14 survival of wildlife species, and an increasing num15 ber of scientific studies have identified movement 

16 corridors as a necessity for wildlife conservation in 

17 a changing climate. Several foreign governments, in18 cluding the governments of Australia and Scotland, 

19 have announced plans for corridors that would make 

20 wildlife movement possible as climate pressures in21 crease. The concept of connective corridors for wild22 life movement has been endorsed by governors of 

23 States in the western United States, and is now 

24 widely recognized by conservation and scientific or25 ganizations. For example, freedom of movement for 


pamtmann on DSKBC07HB2PROD with BILLS

•HR 1755 IH

1 wildlife is basic to the emerging new science of 

2 ‘‘Movement Ecology’’ described in a December 2008 

3 Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. 

4 This freedom of wildlife movement was a funda5 mental reason for the Act’s development and intro6 duction, and has become an increasingly high profile 

7 issue in the climate and biological sciences. 

8 (10) The economic value to the Nation of most 

9 of these undeveloped areas, left in their natural 

10 state, greatly exceeds any potential return to the 

11 Treasury of the United States from timber harvest 

12 and development. If current Federal land manage13 ment in the Northern Rockies continues to result in 

14 the development of roadless areas, the American 

15 public will be using its tax dollars to fund perma16 nent reductions in wilderness, water quality, fish and 

17 wildlife habitat, and species and biological diversity. 

18 (11) Instead, this Act provides opportunities for 

19 employment in outdoor trades by establishing reha20 bilitation zones on specific tracts of damaged Fed21 eral land where active restoration work will occur. 

22 This Act will provide contracts for local businesses 

23 and renew the intrinsic economic, social and cultural 

24 benefits that result from productive land. Federal 

25 land rehabilitation projects represent a direct benefit

•HR 1755 IH

1 to the local economy and reduce the loss to Amer2 ican taxpayers caused by below-cost timber sales and 

3 other subsidized resource extraction. 

4 (12) The congressional review of roadless areas 

5 within the National Forest System, National Park 

6 System, and public lands administered by the Bu7 reau of Land Management in the States of Idaho, 

8 Montana, Oregon, Washington, and Wyoming has 

9 identified areas which, on the basis of their land 

10 form, ecosystem, associated fish and wildlife, eco11 nomic value, and location will help to fulfill the role 

12 of the United States Forest Service, National Park 

13 Service, and Bureau of Land Management to ensure 

14 a quality National Wilderness Preservation System. 

15 The review has identified other areas which may 

16 have outstanding values as wild and scenic rivers. 

17 The review has also identified areas which may not 

18 possess outstanding wilderness attributes and should 

19 not now be designated as components of the Na20 tional Wilderness Preservation System, but which 

21 should be studied to determine their role in main22 taining biological diversity in the Northern Rockies. 

23 (13) Many areas of National Forest System 

24 lands and public lands administered by the Bureau 

25 of Land Management have been damaged and their 


pamtmann on DSKBC07HB2PROD with BILLS
10 

•HR 1755 IH

1 productivity reduced by unwise development prac2 tices, which have also impaired ecosystem function 

3 and biological diversity. The Island Park area adja4 cent to Yellowstone National Park contains large 

5 clear-cut areas right up to the park boundary. Ef6 forts should be made to return these areas to their 

7 former ecological health and native diversity. These 

8 efforts should seek to ensure that vital ecosystem 

9 components are restored, especially in areas where 

10 wildlife travel corridors and native fish and wildlife 

11 populations have been damaged or eliminated. Res12 toration efforts should seek to ensure and maintain 

13 genetic interchange, biological diversity, and restora14 tion of native species diversity throughout the 

15 Northern Rockies Bioregion. 

16 (14) Backcountry areas of the National Park 

17 System have been damaged by inappropriate man18 agement, despite policies that require that rec19 ommended wilderness be administered as wilderness. 

20 An emphasis on structures and motorized equip21 ment, and in some instances developed 

22 ‘‘backcountry’’ campsites, have all detracted from 

23 and degraded the wilderness character of these 

24 backcountry areas.

11 

•HR 1755 IH

1 (15) Federal agencies entrusted with managing 

2 the natural resources of the Northern Rockies Bio3 region operate under contradictory congressional 

4 mandates, and thus are in dissension over manage5 ment policies which involve common resources and 

6 greater ecosystems. Existing agency structures and 

7 regulatory mechanisms have proven unsatisfactory 

8 for responsible management of nationally important 

9 ecosystems on public lands. Existing laws and regu10 lations have not been sufficient to establish and 

11 maintain agency accountability for public resources. 

12 (16) This Act does not affect private existing 

13 rights. 

14 SEC. 3. PURPOSES.

9 TITLE II—BIOLOGICAL 

10 CONNECTING CORRIDORS 

11 SEC. 201. FINDINGS. 

12 The Congress makes the following findings: 

13 (1) The most recent scientific information on 

14 ecological reserve design and function, including re15 cent scientific information on species dispersal in re16 sponse to a changing climate, points out the critical 

17 need for biological connecting corridors between the 

18 larger core ecosystem areas. 

19 (2) While none of the remaining major wild 

20 land ecosystems of the Northern Rockies Bioregion 

21 appears to be of sufficient size to perpetuate the full 

22 complement of self-sustaining viable populations of 

23 native wildlife, biological diversity, and full range of 

24 ecological processes on its own, it appears that an 

25 effective reserve system can be achieved if biological

1 connecting corridors between the ecosystems are 

2 identified and protected. 

3 (3) The wild land areas addressed by this title 

4 are located between the major core ecosystems of the 

5 region and are essential for wildlife and plant migra6 tion and genetic interchange. 

7 (4) These areas are some of the most beautiful 

8 and wild mountain ranges in the United States, in9 cluding the Bitterroot, Sapphire, Lost River, Lemhi, 

10 and Bridger mountain ranges. 

11 SEC. 202. DESIGNATION OF BIOLOGICAL CONNECTING COR12 RIDORS. 

13 (a) DESIGNATION.—To protect the life flow of the
