1. Short title This Act may be cited as the Save Our Forests Act of 2020 . 2. Findings Congress finds the following: (1) Between 2015 and 2019, on average, 88 percent of wildfires in the United States have been human-caused. (2) Human-caused fires tend to occur in or near the wildland-urban interface (as defined in section 101 of the Healthy Forests Restoration Act of 2003 ( 16 U.S.C. 6511 )), where there is a greater risk to people and communities and a higher cost to suppress fires. (3) The wildland-urban interface is the fastest-growing land use type in the United States, posing challenges for fire management and suppression. (4) Over the last 10 years, an average of 64,100 wildfires and an average of 6.8 million acres burned annually. In 2019, 50,477 wildfires burned and 4,700,000 acres burned nationwide. Approximately 65 percent of these acres burned on Federal land, of which close to 20 percent or 600,000 acres were National Forest System lands. (5) The Forest Service suffers from chronic staffing shortages, with several National Forests struggling to maintain their acreage with insufficient recreation management and planning staff. 3. Filling Forest Service recreation management staff vacancies (a) In general The Secretary of Agriculture, acting through the Chief of the Forest Service, shall fill vacancies in National Forests for Forest Service recreation management and planning staff, including recreation technicians, recreation officers, and natural resource managers. (b) Priority In seeking to fill vacancies under subsection (a), the Secretary shall prioritize filling vacancies in National Forests that— (1) are at high or very high risk of catastrophic wildfires; (2) are located in or near the wildland-urban interface
