SEC. 102. REDWOOD NATIONAL AND STATE PARKS RESTORATION.

    (a) Findings.--Congress finds that--
            (1) Coast redwoods are an iconic California resource that 
        represents the beauty and natural grandeur of the Golden State.
            (2) These ancient redwood forests contain the tallest trees 
        on Earth, which grow to be more than 3,500 years old.
            (3) Redwood forests serve as the most effective forest-
        based carbon sink in the world, storing 3 times or more carbon 
        per acre than any other forest ecosystem.
            (4) Healthy old-growth redwood forests provide important 
        ecological benefits, including clean air, habitat for special 
        status plants and animals, and water resources that are 
        critical to the health and sustainability of federally listed 
        salmon fisheries.
            (5) Redwood forests are true wonders of the world, 
        inspiring more than 31 million visitors every year in 
        California's redwood parks and supporting a multi-billion 
        dollar outdoor recreation economy.
            (6) The redwood forests of northern California are the 
        ancestral home of several tribal nations, whose members use 
        stewardship and natural resource management expertise to 
        protect and restore these forestlands.
            (7) After the 1849 Gold Rush, demand for lumber devastated 
        ancient redwood forests and today only 5 percent of the 
        original old-growth coast redwoods remain.
            (8) Redwood National and State Parks safeguard more than 
        one-third of the world's remaining old-growth coast redwood 
        forests.
            (9) These parks contain tens of thousands of acres of 
        redwood forests that have been logged, and require innovative 
        application of science and technology to improve forest 
        stewardship and accelerate forest regeneration.
            (10) Restoration of these forest ecosystems will hasten the 
        return of healthy old-growth forests, while providing jobs in 
        local communities and enhancing native habitat for numerous 
        plant and animal species.
            (11) Redwood National and State Parks are partnering with 
        nongovernmental organizations and tribes to restore these 
        redwood forest ecosystems.
            (12) Redwood forest restoration benefits the people of 
        California for generations to come.
    (b) Partnership Agreements.--The Secretary of the Interior is 
authorized to undertake initiatives to restore degraded redwood forest 
ecosystems in Redwood National and State Parks in partnership with the 
State of California, local agencies, and nongovernmental organizations.
    (c) Compliance.--In carrying out any initiative authorized by 
subsection (a), the Secretary of the Interior shall comply with all 
applicable law.

                Indian Tribe in the conduct of the traditional cultural 
                and religious activities in the wilderness area or 
                wilderness addition.
