In Committee
Summary
A federally authorized feasibility study to evaluate designating the Bay Area Ridge Trail as a National Scenic Trail would be added to the National Trails System Act. The bill defines the trail as roughly 550 miles of multi-use routes along Bay Area ridgelines connecting over 75 parks and open spaces. It would require the Secretary of the Interior to complete and send a feasibility study to Congress within three years, consult Federal and State land managers and interested organizations, and allow certification of studies prepared by groups like the Bay Area Ridge Trail Council if they meet the Act's requirements.
