A bill to authorize appropriations to carry out conservation programs on military reservations and public lands during fiscal years 1986, 1987 and 1988.
Amends the Sikes Act to extend the authorization of appropriations for conservation programs on military reservations and public lands through FY 1988.
Directs the Secretary of each military department to manage the natural resources of each military reservation within the United States under such Secretary's jurisdiction so as to sustain multipurpose uses and provide public access to the extent military uses permit.
Requires each Secretary to provide professional fish and wildlife management services for each military reservation and to report to the Congress on the expenditures made for such purpose.
Amends the Sikes Act to require that cooperative plans for management of such resources on military reservations be reviewed at least every five years, and that such plans be followed when considering other resource development and management plans. Prohibits the sale or lease of land or sale of forest products from land covered by a cooperative plan. Exempts such plans from any requirement of outside service contracts and other specified Federal requirements.
Requires the deposit in a reserve account of all the proceeds of forest product sales from military reservations. (Under current law, one-half of such proceeds must be so deposited.)
