To provide for the transfer of administrative jurisdiction over certain Federal land in the State of California, and for other purposes.
This bill transfers administrative control of about 330 acres of federal land in Tuolumne County, California, between two agencies. Approximately 160 acres currently managed by the Forest Service will be moved to the National Park Service to become part of Yosemite National Park, while about 170 acres currently managed by the National Park Service will be transferred to the Forest Service to become part of Stanislaus National Forest. The legislation includes provisions for minor boundary adjustments, requires notification about any hazardous substances on the land, and ensures that cleanup responsibilities remain with the original agency that held jurisdiction before the transfer. Existing rights, permits, and authorizations on the land remain valid, though the new managing agency will be responsible for administering them going forward.
