This bill proposes an amendment to Section 5 of the Act of June 22, 1948, commonly known as the Thye-Blatnik Act . The primary purpose of this amendment is to revise the criteria for determining the fair appraised value of certain properties under the Act. Specifically, the bill mandates that the Secretary of Agriculture, when conducting appraisals, must consider the highest fair appraised value , which includes an assessment of historical fair appraised values . This change aims to ensure a more comprehensive and potentially higher valuation standard for properties subject to the Act's provisions, as determined by the Secretary.
