Saw this in the Hobbs News Sun (article below from the actual bill) the news paper stated that through this bill the federal gov. will be taking 30% of land in the united states and territorial waters and it doesn't matter if its private or not. The paper also quotes a farmer in Oklahoma stating that the Department of Interior told him directly "We are coming and we are taking 30% of your land, plant it in native grass and turn buffalo out on it so people in metropolitan areas can see what America was like" I'm sure a lot of this is speculation but just wanted yalls opinion.
Sec. 216. Conserving Our Nation's Lands and Waters.

(i) The Secretary of the Interior, the Secretary of Agriculture, the Secretary of Commerce, through the Administrator of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, and the Chair of the Council on Environmental Quality shall, as appropriate, solicit input from State, local, Tribal, and territorial officials, agricultural and forest landowners, fishermen, and other key stakeholders in identifying strategies that will encourage broad participation in the goal of conserving 30 percent of our lands and waters by 2030.
(ii) The report shall propose guidelines for determining whether lands and waters qualify for conservation, and it also shall establish mechanisms to measure progress toward the 30-percent goal.
