SEC. 9. WILDLAND RECOVERY SYSTEM.

reduced by development activities, there is hereby estab-
lished the National Wildland Restoration and Recovery
System (hereinafter in this section referred to as the ‘‘Re-
covery System’’).
(b) MANAGEMENT.—Recovery System lands shall be
managed so as to restore their native vegetative cover and
species diversity, stabilize slopes and soils so as to prevent
or reduce further erosion, recontour slopes to their original
contours, remove barriers to natural fish spawning runs,
and generally restore, as much as possible, such lands to
their natural condition as existed prior to their entry and
development.
(c) COMPONENTS.—The following areas, as depicted
on the maps dated July 1, 1993, and entitled ‘‘National
