SEC. 3. IMPROVEMENT OF HABITAT FOR GREATER SAGE-GROUSE AND MULE DEER.

    (a) Categorical Exclusion.--
            (1) In general.--Not later than 1 year after the date of 
        the enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall develop 1 or 
        more categorical exclusions (as defined in section 1508.4 of 
        title 40, Code of Federal Regulations (or a successor 
        regulation)) for covered vegetation management activities 
        carried out to protect, restore, or improve habitat for greater 
        sage-grouse or mule deer.
            (2) Administration.--In developing and administering a 
        categorical exclusion under paragraph (1), the Secretary 
        shall--
                    (A) comply with the National Environmental Policy

                Federal Regulations (or successor regulations), in 
                determining whether to use the categorical exclusion; 
                and
                    (C) consider--
                            (i) the relative efficacy of landscape-
                        scale habitat projects;
                            (ii) the likelihood of continued declines 
                        in the populations of greater sage-grouse and 
                        mule deer in the absence of landscape-scale 
                        vegetation management; and
                            (iii) the need for habitat restoration 
                        activities after wildfire or other natural 
                        disturbances.
    (b) Implementation of Covered Vegetative Management Activities 
Within the Range of Greater Sage-grouse and Mule Deer.--If a 
categorical exclusion developed under subsection (a) is used to 
implement a covered vegetative management activity in an area within 
the range of both greater sage-grouse and mule deer, the covered 
vegetative management activity shall protect, restore, or improve 
habitat concurrently for both greater sage-grouse and mule deer.
    (c) Long-term Monitoring and Maintenance.--Before commencing any 
covered vegetation management activity that is covered by a categorical 
exclusion under subsection (a), the Secretary shall develop a long-term 
monitoring and maintenance plan, covering at least the 20 year-period 
beginning on the date of commencement, to ensure that management of the 
treated area does not degrade the habitat gains secured by the covered 
vegetation management activity.
    (d) Disposal of Vegetative Material.--Subject to applicable local 
restrictions, any vegetative material resulting from a covered 
vegetation management activity that is covered by a categorical 
exclusion under subsection (a) may be--
            (1) used for--
                    (A) fuel wood; or
                    (B) other products; or
            (2) piled or burned, or both.
    (e) Treatment for Temporary Roads.--
            (1) In general.--Notwithstanding section 2(1)(B)(xi), any 
        temporary road constructed in carrying out a covered vegetation 
        management activity that is covered by a categorical exclusion 
        under subsection (a)--
                    (A) shall be used by the Secretary for the covered 
                vegetation management activity for not more than 2 
                years; and
                    (B) shall be decommissioned by the Secretary not 
                later than 3 years after the earlier of the date on 
                which--
                            (i) the temporary road is no longer needed; 
                        and
                            (ii) the project is completed.
            (2) Requirement.--A treatment under paragraph (1) shall 
        include reestablishing native vegetative cover--
                    (A) as soon as practicable; but
                    (B) not later than 10 years after the date of 
                completion of the applicable covered vegetation 
                management activity.

            Passed the Senate September 6, 2018.

            Attest:

                                                JULIE E. ADAMS,

Example Output: Sage-Grouse and Mule Deer Habitat Conservation and Restoration Act of 2017 This bill directs the Department of Interior to categorically exclude vegetative management activities that establish or improve habitat for greater sage-grouse and mule deer from environmental review requirements under the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA). Examples of vegetative management activities include restoring native vegetation following a natural disturbance or preventing the expansion of nonnative or invasive vegetation into such habitat.  A categorical exclusion under NEPA is a category of actions which do not have a significant effect on the human environment and for which neither an Environmental Assessment nor an Environmental Impact Statement is required. The bill prohibits the categorical exclusion from including: (1) activity conducted in a wilderness area or wilderness study area, or (2) activity for the construction of a permanent road or trail. Before commencing a vegetative management activity that is covered by a categorical exclusion, Interior must develop a long-term monitoring and maintenance plan, covering at least 20 years, to ensure that management of the treated area does not degrade the habitat gains secured by the vegetative management activity. Vegetative material resulting from vegetative management activity may be: (1) used for fuel wood or other products; or (2) piled or burned, or both.  Native vegetative cover must be reestablished on a temporary road constructed in connection with a categorically excluded vegetative management activity in order to minimize soil erosion from areas disturbed by the temporary road.

Development in Mining Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds as follows:
            (1) In the past decade, the concept of ``sustainable 
        development'' has become standard United States and 
        international policy.
            (2) Sustainable development is environmentally sound and is 
        undertaken in a way that meets the needs of the present without 
        compromising the ability of future generations to meet their 
        needs.
            (3) Federal land managers have worked with the mining 
        industry and other industries over the past decade to develop 
        sustainability principles for resource development on Federal 
        lands, but there is a need to demonstrate and implement these 
        principles.
            (4) For the mining industry, a prime goal of sustainable 
        development is to plan and implement economically viable and 
        productive post-mining land uses that will allow lands impacted 
        by mining to continue providing jobs and other economic 
        benefits beyond the completion of mining activity. 
        Privatization of the surface at mine sites is a crucial 
        component in achieving and maintaining sustainable development 
        opportunities for a mining operation's host community.
            (5) With more than 80 percent of Nevada's lands in Federal 
        ownership, the State's rural communities in particular depend 
        on continued productive uses of Federal lands for jobs, tax 
        revenues, and economic development.
            (6) Mining on Nevada's public lands is the most important 
        source of high-paying jobs and other economic benefits to rural 
        Nevada communities. Mining on Nevada public lands also provides 
        substantial tax revenues to the Treasury and to State and local 
        governments.
            (7) The Rochester Mine, located in Pershing County, Nevada, 
        provides an excellent opportunity to demonstrate sustainable 
        development principles in the mining industry.
            (8) The Rochester Mine, operated by Coeur Rochester, Inc., 
        opened in 1986 and employs 250 people, most of whom live in or 
        near Lovelock, Nevada. The mine operates on patented lands and 
        approximately 7,000 acres of public lands subject to mining 
        claims and impacted by the mining operation.
            (9) For its 20 years of operation, the Rochester Mine has 
        been the major source of employment for Pershing County 
        residents.
            (10) The Rochester Mine is near the end of its 
        productivity, and closure and reclamation of the mine are 
        expected to begin within 5 years, subject to closure and 
        reclamation plans to be approved by the Secretary of the 
        Interior and the State of Nevada. Given ore grades and 
        exploration results in the area, Coeur Rochester, Inc. does not 
        contemplate any future mining at the site.
            (11) Without a post-mining land use for the Rochester Mine 
        or entry of a new industry, Pershing County faces significant 
        and destabilizing unemployment and loss of tax revenues when 
        the Rochester Mine closes.
            (12) Coeur Rochester, Inc. has developed an innovative plan 
        for post-mining land uses of the Rochester Mine site, including 
        reuse of the mine's overburden and waste rock as aggregate in 
        California and other markets, and potential use of the mine 
        site as a State-permitted landfill for municipal or industrial 
        wastes or construction debris.
            (13) The public lands subject to mining claims at the 
        Rochester Mine are difficult and uneconomical for the Bureau of 
        Land Management to manage because of the checkerboard pattern 
        of Federal land ownership in the vicinity of the Rochester 
        Mine.
            (14) Disposal of such lands will also serve other important 
        public objectives, including the demonstration of viable and 
        productive post-mining land uses and of other sustainable 
        development concepts in the mining industry. The project would 
        also facilitate the creation of a new long-term employment 
        source and would result in other important economic development 
        benefits and the maintenance of a tax base for Pershing County.
            (15) The Bureau of Land Management has determined that the 
        public lands addressed in this Act are suitable for 
        consolidation of ownership or disposal into private ownership.
            (16) Lands to be conveyed under this Act would remain 
        subject to applicable Federal and State environmental, land 
        use, and safety laws.
            (17) Any lands disposed of by the Secretary pursuant to 
        this Act would be sold at $500 per acre.
    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this Act are--
            (1) to implement a sustainable development project in 
        Pershing County, Nevada;
            (2) to encourage and promote the concept of sustainable 
        development practices in resource-dependent communities that 
        have a limited privately held land base; and
