What it does
The bill would direct the Secretary of the Interior to conduct a feasibility study within one year of enactment to determine whether the Bay Area Ridge Trail should be designated as a national scenic trail under the National Trails System Act. The study would assess the trail’s approximately 550-mile route through northern California’s San Francisco Bay Area, which connects over 75 parks and open spaces and passes through diverse natural and cultural landscapes. The Secretary must consult with federal and state land management agencies and interested organizations, including the Bay Area Ridge Trail Council, before submitting the study to Congress.
