What it does

The bill requires a boundary survey within 180 days of enactment, grants a 300-foot-wide right-of-way for renewable energy transmission within 30 days, prohibits Class II and III gaming on the land, preserves the tribe’s state water rights, maintains existing intergovernmental agreements with Las Vegas, and repeals a specific provision from the 2015 National Defense Authorization Act. The Secretary of the Interior is responsible for implementing the trust transfer and survey.
