                    (D) Evaluation for renewal.--In determining whether 
                to renew a designation of an eligible consortium under

                            (i) the performance of the consortium 
                        against the terms of the consortium's most 
                        recent designation under paragraph (1) and any 
                        post-designation awards the consortium may have

                            (ii) the progress the consortium has made 
                        with respect to project-specific metrics the 
                        consortium proposed in the consortium's 
                        application for the most recent designation 
                        under paragraph (1), particularly with respect 
                        to those metrics that were designed to help 
                        communities track their own progress;
                            (iii) whether any changes to the 
                        composition of the eligible consortium or 
                        revisions to the plan or strategy described in 
                        subparagraph (C)(ii) would improve the 
                        competitiveness of United States manufacturing; 
                        and
                            (iv) such other criteria as the Secretary 
                        considers appropriate.
            (5) Application for designation.--
                    (A) In general.--An eligible consortium seeking a 
                designation under paragraph (1) shall submit an

                        concentration of the consortium, including an 
                        assessment of how the manufacturing 
                        concentration of the consortium competitively 
                        ranks nationally according to measures relating 
                        to employment, sales, location quotients for an 
                        industry's level of concentration, or such 
                        other measures as the Secretary considers 
                        appropriate;

                        industrial ecosystem of the region of the 
                        consortium, which may include assessment of 
                        workforce and training, such as that involving

                        designated as a manufacturing community to 
                        gauge performance of the strategy of the 
                        consortium to improve the manufacturing in the 
                        region of the consortium; and

        Commerce before the date of the enactment of this Act shall be 
        deemed a manufacturing community designated under this 
        subsection if such consortium is still designated as a

                        of the same consortium designated as a 
                        manufacturing community under subsection (b), 
                        the head of such agency may determine how 
                        preference will be given under subparagraph

A consortium, to be eligible for such designation and assistance, must:    represent a region that is large enough to contain critical elements of the key technologies or supply chain prioritized by the consortium and small enough to enable close collaboration among the consortium's members;   include at least one institution of higher education, a private sector entity, and a government entity; and   have a lead applicant that is a district organization, an Indian tribe, a state or political subdivision of a state, an institution of higher education, a nonprofit organization or association with an application supported by a state, a political subdivision of a state, or a native community.   Commerce shall make such designations for a two-year period, and may renew a designation for additional two-year periods, based on specified criteria.  Recipients may use such financial or technical assistance to support investments in ecosystems that will improve the competitiveness of U.S. manufacturing, including infrastructure, access to capital, promotion of exports and foreign direct investment, equipment upgrades, workforce training and recruitment, energy or process efficiency, business incubators, site preparation, advanced research, supply chain development, and small business assistance.

Ex Output:

Empowering State Forestry to Improve Forest Health Act of 2017 This bill amends the Cooperative Forestry Assistance Act of 1978 to direct the Forest Service to establish a landscape-scale restoration program to provide financial and technical assistance for landscape-scale restoration projects on state and private forest lands that maintain or improve benefits from trees and forests on such lands.  The program shall:   address the national private forest conservation priorities specified under the Act; and  enhance public benefits from trees and forests, as identified in a state-wide assessment and a long-term state-wide forest resource strategy under the Act.  The program shall also have one or more objectives, including to:  protect or improve water quality or quantity; reduce wildfire risk, including through hazardous fuels treatment; protect or enhance wildlife habitat; improve forest health and forest ecosystems, including addressing native, nonnative, and invasive pests; or enhance opportunities for new and existing markets in which the production and use of wood products strengthens local and regional economies.    The Forest Service shall allocate from the amounts made available under this bill:  50% for the competitive process for distributing funds for landscape-scale restoration projects; and 50% proportionally to states to maximize the achievement of the restoration program's objectives and to address the highest national priorities, as identified in state-wide assessments and long-term state-wide forest resource strategies.  The bill amends the Healthy Forests Restoration Act of 2003 to allocate funds and use specified authorities of the Department of Agriculture or of the Department of the Interior, as appropriate, to assist cross-boundary hazardous fuel reduction and wildfire mitigation programs.
