The Pacific Flyway Habitat Enhancement Act amends the Food Security Act of 1985 to allow for additional agricultural lands to be enrolled in the conservation reserve enhancement program.

The Secretary may waive the matching requirement for agreements involving wetland-dependent species on working cropland.
