The Headwaters Protection Act of 2025 aims to enhance and extend a program that protects water sources in forested areas. This legislation seeks to ensure that water supply and quality are maintained while also addressing the health of forests and watersheds. One of the main objectives of the Act is to reauthorize the Water Source Protection Program established under the Healthy Forests Restoration Act of 2003. The Act introduces several key provisions, including the expansion of eligible partners for watershed protection projects.
