Plain-language change summary

The amendment to HR 200 specifies that a section will be revised when a new species is listed or critical habitat is designated under the Endangered Species Act, as well as when new information reveals effects of the land. Previously, the language included the phrase "or new information concerning a listed species or critical habitat becomes available," which has been removed. This change clarifies the circumstances under which revisions will occur, potentially narrowing the focus to specific actions rather than including broader new information.
