To provide for the transfer of administrative jurisdiction over certain Federal land in the State of California, and for other purposes.

Key Points

• This bill trades land between two federal agencies in Tuolumne County, California. About 160 acres will move from the Stanislaus National Forest to Yosemite National Park, while 170 acres will move from the park back to the forest.
• The goal of this swap is to make it easier for the government to manage the land. By trading these specific sections, the agencies can better align their boundaries with how the land is actually used and protected.
• The bill ensures that any existing legal rights are protected. If a person or business has a permit, lease, or right-of-way on the land, those agreements will stay in place even after the land changes hands.
• Both the Forest Service and the National Park Service must identify any hazardous waste on the land. Each agency remains responsible for cleaning up any pollution that happened while they were in charge of the property.
