Summary
The Santini‑Burton Modernization Act revises the 1974 law that lets the Forest Service buy and run land in the Lake Tahoe Basin. It adds the Washoe Tribe as a partner, creates new funding and planning rules, and sets criteria for land‑management projects that protect forest health, water quality, cultural sites, and public access. The changes aim to improve environmental outcomes and tribal access while coordinating with state, local, and regional agencies.
