The term eligible host entity means an organization, entity, or individual that— administers the program at the local level; and supervises Corps members in partnership and coordination with the Corporation, including the relevant partnering Federal agency specified in the memorandum for the issue area addressed by the program at the local level.

The term institution of higher education has the same meaning given such term in sections 101(a) and 102(a)(1) of the Higher Education Act of 1965 ( 20 U.S.C. 1001(a) , 1002(a)(1)). The term partnering Federal agency means a Federal agency described in subsection (d)(1). The term program means the Civilian Conservation program established under subsection (c). The term State coordinating agency means an agency in a State— that is selected by the State to coordinate, subject to the memorandum described in subsection (d), the implementation of activities under this chapter at eligible worksites in the State, including providing services through State agencies and coordinating access to training (including technical instruction) and educational resources for Corps members; may be a State department of environmental protection, natural resources, or agriculture, or other department or commission (as determined by the Corporation); and that coordinates and partners with Tribal agencies (such as Tribal departments of environmental protection, natural resources, or agriculture) regarding the implementation of activities under this chapter at eligible worksites associated with a Tribe (including for the provision of services through Tribal agencies), if the Corporation determines such coordination and partnership is relevant for the State.

The Corporation (as defined in section 101) may establish a Civilian Conservation Corps. The Corporation (as defined in subsection (b)) may establish and administer a Civilian Conservation program, to place unemployed and underemployed citizens of the United States in service positions related to conservation, including conservation of private and public lands. The program shall provide conservation service positions, and training (including technical instruction) and education related to such service positions, in order to support— the protection, enhancement, and restoration of natural resources; climate change mitigation and adaptation; investment in future generations of farmers, foresters, ranchers, conservationists, and other stewards of the Nation's shared natural resources; the establishment, improvement, and rehabilitation of public outdoor recreation amenities and infrastructure; or the reduction of environmental health disparities in communities of color, low-income communities, and Tribal and indigenous communities, that are experiencing disproportionate exposure to environmental harms and risks.

The program shall be administered, as specified in a memorandum of understanding, by the Corporation (as defined in section 101), in partnership with— applicable Federal agencies with the relevant issue area expertise and standards, such as the Department of Agriculture and the Department of the Interior; and applicable State or Tribal agencies with the relevant issue area expertise and standards, such as the State or Tribal agencies with jurisdiction over agriculture, natural resources, or environmental protection.

In carrying out the program, the Corporation shall make grants to entities that own, operate, manage, or support work on eligible worksites, to serve as eligible host entities, and to administer the program at the local level. In the event of a covered project carried out by an eligible host entity to which the cost sharing requirement under section 212(a)(1) of the Public Land Corps Act of 1993 ( 16 U.S.C. 1729(a)(1) ) would otherwise apply, notwithstanding that requirement, a grant under this subsection, combined with funds received under an Act described in subparagraph (B), may be used to fund costs of the project greater than 75 percent of the cost of such project.

In this paragraph, the term covered project means a project carried out pursuant to— title I of the Act entitled An Act to establish a pilot program in the Departments of the Interior and Agriculture designated as the Youth Conservation Corps, and for other purposes , approved August 13, 1970 (commonly known as the Youth Conservation Corps Act of 1970 ; 16 U.S.C. 1701 et seq. ); or the Public Lands Corps Act of 1993 ( 16 U.S.C. 1721 et seq. ). To be eligible to receive a grant under subsection

(e)and become an eligible host entity, an entity shall own, operate, manage, or support work on an eligible worksite for a Corps project. Entities eligible to receive such a grant and become an eligible host entity may include— the board in charge of a local conservation district; a State or local office of the Cooperative Extension System or an equivalent Tribal office; an individual farmer; a nonprofit organization, farmer membership organization, or other agriculture group, with conservation expertise, that can place a Corps member on an individual farm; a State or Tribal agency with jurisdiction over agriculture or natural resources; the trustee of a land trust; a forest or environmental consultant; the sponsor of an apprenticeship program that has been registered by the Department of Labor, a State office of apprenticeship, or an equivalent Tribal office; an entity that hosts a Corps member under a service program, including— a program authorized under— this Act, including the Healthy Futures Corps described in section 122; title I of the Act entitled An Act to establish a pilot program in the Departments of the Interior and Agriculture designated as the Youth Conservation Corps, and for other purposes , approved August 13, 1970 (commonly known as the Youth Conservation Corps Act of 1970 ; 16 U.S.C. 1701 et seq. ); or the Public Lands Corps Act of 1993 ( 16 U.S.C. 1721 et seq. ); a program of the Indian Youth Service Corps authorized under section 210 of the Public Lands Corps Act of 1993 ( 16 U.S.C. 1727b ); and a program of the Urban Youth Corps authorized under section 106 of the National and Community Service Trust Act of 1993 ( 42 U.S.C. 12656 ); a local agriculture, conservation, watershed, or wildlife nonprofit organization; a State or Tribal park or forest foundation; and another appropriate entity, as determined by the Corporation. An eligible worksite shall be located on public land or on private land determined to be eligible under clause (ii). In the case of a proposed worksite located on private land, the Corporation, in consultation with the partnering Federal agencies described in subsection (d)(1), shall determine whether the site is an eligible worksite for purposes of this paragraph by determining the adequacy of the public conservation benefit of the related Corps project. In determining the adequacy of that benefit, the Corporation may consider, among other factors, the project’s ability to address core State, Tribal, or local conservation objectives such as addressing land conservation priorities, promoting climate resiliency, fulfilling watershed plans, establishing stream buffers, restoring critical wildlife habitat, or promoting agricultural best management practices. A proposed worksite that is predominantly located on private land will be treated as a proposed worksite located on private land for purposes of clause (ii). In the case of a proposed worksite located in an environmental justice area identified under subsection (j), the Corporation shall determine whether the site is an eligible worksite under this subsection by determining— the benefits of the related Corps project for the health of the community living in the environmental justice area, and whether those benefits are equitably distributed within such community, including the ability of the project to— effect reductions in hazardous air pollutants; improve water quality, access, and affordability; increase access to green space and outdoor recreation; or expand access to and affordability of healthy food; and whether the proposed host entity can demonstrate there was a meaningful public involvement process in the development of the proposed Corps project. In order for an entity described in subsection

An area in the State with high rates of asthma prevalence and incidence. An area in the State within which drinking water has been contaminated with lead or perfluoroalkyl or polyfluoroalkyl substances. An area in the State with an additional demographic or environmental factor that the Environmental Equity Resource Center determines to be appropriate in identifying an area as an environmental justice area for the purpose of Corps projects. Nothing in this section shall be construed as limiting a State from identifying, using factors under this paragraph or otherwise, an area as an environmental justice area for purposes other than under this section. Subject to paragraph (2), grant funds awarded under this section to an eligible host entity may be obligated for a project if the steel, iron, and manufactured goods used for such project are produced only in the United States. Subject to subparagraph (B), paragraph

(1)shall not apply in any case, or category of cases, in which the eligible host entity overseeing a project finds that— applying paragraph

(1)would be inconsistent with the public interest; the steel, iron, or manufactured goods needed for such project are not produced in the United States in sufficient and reasonably available quantities or in a satisfactory quality; or use of steel, iron, or manufactured goods produced in the United States will increase the cost of the overall project by more than 25 percent. If the Corporation or a partnering Federal agency receives a request by an eligible host entity for a waiver under this section for an exception listed in subparagraph (A), the head of the Corporation or partnering Federal agency (referred to in this subparagraph as the agency head ) shall make available to the public a copy of the request and information available to the head of such Federal agency concerning the request, and shall allow for public input on the request for at least 15 days prior to making a finding based on the request. The agency head shall make the request and accompanying information available by electronic means, including on the official public internet site of the Federal agency involved.

The Council shall study— the operation of the Corporation (as defined in section 166); the impact of grants awarded under section 166; and the outcome of participants in the program created under section 166. The Council shall prepare annual reports on the issues considered under paragraph

(1)and submit such reports to the Corporation (as defined in section 101). The members of the Council shall not receive compensation for the performance of services for the Council, but shall be allowed travel expenses, including per diem in lieu of subsistence, at rates authorized for employees of agencies under subchapter I of chapter 57 of title 5, United States Code, while away from their homes or regular places of business in the performance of services for the Council. Notwithstanding section 1342 of title 31, United States Code, the Secretary may accept the voluntary and uncompensated services of members of the Council.
