The FY2027 President's Budget requests $96.5M for Facilities Maintenance and Leases, within Agriculture (USDA)'s Forest Service Operations account. That is down 36% on the FY2026 figure of $152.0M, which is the enacted appropriation.

Bases are separate columns and are never summed into one figure.
Agriculture (USDA) discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Agriculture (USDA)'s discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds
The Facilities Maintenance and Leases program ensures that the Forest Service can effectively support its workforce and operations by efficiently managing facilities infrastructure. This program funds the maintenance, repair, and decommissioning of over 16,000 Forest Service owned administrative facilities, and 3,300 water systems that directly support the workforce and public safety. Additionally, it covers the costs of over 550 long- term Forest Service and General Services Administration (GSA) leases, partner lease agreements, Tenant Improvement (TI) expenses, USDA "Greenbook" security, and security provided by the Federal Protection Services.
