These two awards in Oregon are part of a larger $80 million investment provided by Congress in the Fiscal Year 2026 Interior-Environment Appropriations Act to support 15 projects conserving more than 34,000 acres of working forests in 11 states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Land and Water Conservation Fund provides $900 million annually for federal land acquisition and financial assistance to states.&nbsp;These funds are critical for improving recreational access to our public lands, protecting iconic landscapes, delivering grants to states and local governments to create and protect urban parks, open spaces and working forests, and providing farmers and ranchers with easements which allow them to continue to steward their privately-owned lands while simultaneously investing in conservation for the benefit of future generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>\u201cThe Madrone Ridge Forest and Lostine Forest projects receiving Forest Legacy Program funding is an important step in protecting forestland by ensuring strong landscape resiliency through active forest management and long-term stewardship while creating new recreational opportunities for the public.
