Input: Consider Input: SECTION 1. FINDINGS.

    Congress makes the following findings:
            (1) Numerous studies by the Office of the Inspector General 
        of the Department of the Interior, the General Accounting 
        Office, and independent auditors have criticized the absence of 
        independent oversight or other forms of internal control over 
        the Department's management of Indian trust assets and trust 
        funds.
            (2) Indian and tribal account holders have indicated that 
        they will have little or no confidence in the reform of the 
        trust management system if the reform is carried out by the 
        same entities that are responsible for the management of the 
        system on the date of enactment of this Act.
            (3) It would constitute an inherent conflict of interest or 
        at least the appearance of a conflict of interest if the entity 
        establishing internal controls for a trust management system 
        were to be appointed, supervised, and subject to removal by the 
        entity that such internal controls are written for.
            (4) Account holder confidence will be improved if the same 
        official is not simultaneously responsible for the immediate 
        supervision of the fiduciary and financial reporting activities 
        of both the trust fund accounting system and the trust asset 
        and accounting management system.
            (5) To the extent practicable, the reform of activities and 
        creation of internal controls as described in the Department of 
        the Interior's Trust Management Improvement Project, High Level 
        Implementation Plan dated July 1998, and any amendments or 
        modifications to that plan, should be carried out by private 
        contractors.

Output: Conservation Reserve Program Improvement and Rural Water Systems Access Act of 2018  This bill amends the Food Security Act of 1985 to reauthorize through FY2023 and modify the Department of Agriculture (USDA) Conservation Reserve Program (CRP). (CRP provides payments to farmers who agree to remove environmentally sensitive land from agricultural production and plant species that will improve environmental health and quality.)  The bill authorizes USDA to designate areas of special economic sensitivity as economic priority areas for CRP allocations. These areas include areas with actual and significant declining habitat for specifies of economic significance. A &quot;species of economic significance&quot; is a wildlife specifies: (1) for which CRP is critical to maintaining its habitat, and (2) that the governor of a state verifies provides more than $150 million each year to the economy of the state from hunting and related activities.  Additionally, the bill: (1) authorizes cost-share assistance for fencing and water distribution practices, and (2) modifies policies regarding grazing and the mechanical harvesting of vegetative cover on CRP land.  The bill also amends the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 to prohibit the Forest Service from charging rural water districts or associations rental fees for rights-of-way for rural water pipelines that cross National Forest System land.
