prepare, advertise, offer, and award contracts during the emer-
gency period for salvage timber sales from Federal lands

regulations implementing such section) and a biological
evaluation under section 7(a)(2) of the Endangered Species
Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1536(a)(2)) and other applicable
Federal law and implementing regulations. At the sole
discretion of the Secretary concerned and to the extent
the Secretary concerned considers appropriate and feasible,

biological evaluation written before such date, or informa-
tion collected for such a document or evaluation if the
document, evaluation, or information applies to the Federal
lands covered by the proposed sale.

Forest and each district of the Bureau of Land Manage-
ment.

sales.

nel, including personnel reassignments, required to conduct
an enhanced salvage timber sale program through fiscal
year 1997.
(E) A statement of the intentions of the Secretary
concerned with respect to the salvage timber sale volume
levels specified in the joint explanatory statement of man-
agers accompanying the conference report on this Act.
(3) ADVANCEMENT OF SALES AUTHORIZED.—The Secretary
concerned may begin salvage timber sales under subsection
(b) intended for a subsequent fiscal year before the start of
such fiscal year if the Secretary concerned determines that
performance of such salvage timber sales will not interfere
with salvage timber sales intended for a preceding fiscal year.
(4) DECISIONS.—The Secretary concerned shall design and
select the specific salvage timber sales to be offered under
subsection (b) on the basis of the analysis contained in the

of Federal Procurement Policy Act (41 U.S.C. 421(c))

RECIPIENTS; REPORT.—The
provisions of section 3(d)(1) of the Federal Workforce
Restructuring Act of 1994 (Public Law 103–226; 5 U.S.C.
5597 note) shall not apply to any former employee of the
Secretary concerned who received a voluntary separation
incentive payment authorized by such Act and accepts
employment pursuant to this paragraph. The Director of
the Office of Personnel Management and the Secretary
concerned shall provide a summary report to the appro-
priate committees of Congress, the Committee on Govern-
ment Reform and Oversight of the House of Representa-
tives, and the Committee on Governmental Affairs of the
Senate regarding the number of incentive payment recipi-
ents who were rehired, their terms of reemployment, their
job classifications, and an explanation, in the judgment
of the agencies involved of how such reemployment without
repayment of the incentive payments received is consistent
with the original waiver provisions of such Act. This report
shall not be conducted in a manner that would delay the
rehiring of any former employees under this paragraph,
or affect the normal confidentiality of Federal employees.
(6) COST
CONSIDERATIONS.—Salvage timber sales under-
taken pursuant to this section shall not be precluded because
the costs of such activities are likely to exceed the revenues
derived from such activities.
(7) EFFECT OF SALVAGE SALES.—The Secretary concerned
shall not substitute salvage timber sales conducted under sub-
section (b) for planned non-salvage timber sales.
(8) REFORESTATION OF SALVAGE TIMBER SALE PARCELS.—
The Secretary concerned shall plan and implement reforestation

later than any applicable restocking period required by law
or regulation.
(9) EFFECT ON JUDICIAL DECISIONS.—The Secretary con-
cerned may conduct salvage timber sales under subsection (b)
notwithstanding any decision, restraining order, or injunction
issued by a United States court before the date of the enactment
of this section.

BY OPTION 9.—Notwithstanding any other law (including a law
under the authority of which any judicial order may be outstanding
on or after the date of enactment of this Act), the Secretary con-
cerned shall expeditiously prepare, offer, and award timber sale
contracts on Federal lands described in the ‘‘Record of Decision
for Amendments to Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management
Planning Documents Within the Range of the Northern Spotted
Owl’’, signed by the Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary
of Agriculture on April 13, 1994. The Secretary concerned may
conduct timber sales under this subsection notwithstanding any
decision, restraining order, or injunction issued by a United States
court before the date of the enactment of this section. The issuance
of any regulation pursuant to section 4(d) of the Endangered Species
Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1533(d)) to ease or reduce restrictions on
non-Federal lands within the range of the northern spotted owl
shall be deemed to satisfy the requirements of section 102(2C)
H. R. 1158—50
of the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C.
4332(2C)), given the analysis included in the Final Supplemental
Impact Statement on the Management of the Habitat for Late
Successional and Old Growth Forest Related Species Within the
Range of the Northern Spotted Owl, prepared by the Secretary
of Agriculture and the Secretary of the Interior in 1994, which
is, or may be, incorporated by reference in the administrative record
of any such regulation. The issuance of any such regulation pursu-
ant to section 4(d) of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16
U.S.C. 1533(d)) shall not require the preparation of an environ-
mental impact statement under section 102(2C) of the National
Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (42 U.S.C. 4332(2C)).
(e) ADMINISTRATIVE REVIEW.—Salvage timber sales conducted
under subsection (b), timber sales conducted under subsection (d),
and any decision of the Secretary concerned in connection with
such sales, shall not be subject to administrative review.
(f) JUDICIAL REVIEW.—
(1) PLACE
AND
TIME
OF
FILING.—A salvage timber sale
to be conducted under subsection (b), and a timber sale to
be conducted under subsection (d), shall be subject to judicial
review only in the United States district court for the district
in which the affected Federal lands are located. Any challenge
to such sale must be filed in such district court within 15
days after the date of initial advertisement of the challenged
sale. The Secretary concerned may not agree to, and a court
may not grant, a waiver of the requirements of this paragraph.
(2) EFFECT OF FILING ON AGENCY ACTION.—For 45 days
after the date of the filing of a challenge to a salvage timber
sale to be conducted under subsection (b) or a timber sale
to be conducted under subsection (d), the Secretary concerned
shall take no action to award the challenged sale.
(3) PROHIBITION
ON
RESTRAINING
ORDERS, PRELIMINARY
INJUNCTIONS, AND
RELIEF
PENDING
REVIEW.—No restraining
order, preliminary injunction, or injunction pending appeal
shall be issued by any court of the United States with respect
to any decision to prepare, advertise, offer, award, or operate
a salvage timber sale pursuant to subsection (b) or any decision
to prepare, advertise, offer, award, or operate a timber sale
pursuant to subsection (d). Section 705 of title 5, United States
Code, shall not apply to any challenge to such a sale.
(4) STANDARD OF REVIEW.—The courts shall have authority
to enjoin permanently, order modification of, or void an individ-
ual salvage timber sale if it is determined by a review of
the record that the decision to prepare, advertise, offer, award,
or operate such sale was arbitrary and capricious or otherwise
not in accordance with applicable law (other than those laws
specified in subsection (i)).
(5) TIME FOR DECISION.—Civil actions filed under this sub-
