Allows Washington counties to enter into shared stewardship agreements with federal agencies for managing federal lands.

The bill grants Washington counties the authority to enter into shared stewardship agreements with federal agencies, including the United States Forest Service, for managing federal lands. These agreements focus on maintaining and managing fuel breaks on federal lands up to one mile on either side of county roads. The agreements must include a revenue-sharing component, allowing counties to retain proceeds from any timber sales. This aims to aid counties in receiving revenue to address lost revenues from timber sales and the loss of revenue for rural schools.
