It specifically extends the timeframe for these allotments from 5 to 10 years. The bill also directs the Department of the Interior to identify and make available additional suitable federal land, particularly within National Forest System units in Alaska, for selection by eligible veterans, while excluding land that would significantly impact important values or management plans.
