Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of H.R. 2941, the Kisatchie National Forest Land Conveyance Act. This measure introduced by our colleague, Mr. Abraham, authorizes the USDA to sell specified Federal land in Winn Parish, Louisiana. The rural residential qualities of the land make it incompatible with National Forest management, and this transfer would eliminate unnecessary administrative and boundary maintenance costs on the already strained Forest Service. The Kisatchie National Forest is rich in renewable wildlife resources, and supporting wilderness habitat is vital to their sustainability. This transfer, supported by the Forest Service, will allow the forest to be managed at the highest level of stewardship. Mr. Speaker, I reserve the balance of my time.
