S 1514 United States Senate · 119th Congress

Quinault Indian Nation Land Transfer Act

This bill transfers approximately 72 acres of land in Washington State from the Forest Service to the U.S. Department of the Interior, which will hold the land in trust for the Quinault Indian Nation. The land becomes part of the Quinault Indian Reservation and will be managed by the Interior Secretary under standard federal trust rules for tribal lands. The bill explicitly prohibits gaming on this land under federal law and confirms the transfer does not affect the tribe's existing treaty rights from the 1855 Treaty of Olympia. It also requires standard hazardous materials disclosure but does not mandate cleanup of contaminants on the land.
