This bill establishes the Cleaner Transportation at Recreational Areas to Improve our Landmarks and Sites (Cleaner TRAILS) Initiative to install electric vehicle charging and hydrogen fueling stations on national forests, national parks, and nearby lands. The Forest Service and National Park Service will develop a comprehensive strategy to add zero-emission vehicles to their fleets and shuttle operations, with a goal of reaching at least 25 percent zero-emission vehicles by 2030, while also supporting public access to electric vehicle charging infrastructure at these recreation areas. The bill authorizes $100 million annually for each agency from fiscal years 2027 through 2031, with spending limits that cap fleet vehicle purchases at 20 percent of funds and infrastructure in urban areas at 30 percent. The legislation also directs the Joint Office of Energy and Transportation to prioritize electric vehicle infrastructure at airports and travel destinations, requires updated plans every two years, and mandates annual reports to Congress on implementation progress and any barriers encountered.
