Summary

What This Bill Does

This bill revokes a 1964 public land order and transfers approximately 265 acres to trust for the Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians in California. This includes 80 acres of BLM land and 185 acres of Indian Creek Ranch land. The land becomes part of the tribe's reservation but cannot be used for gaming.

Who Benefits and How

The Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians gains ~265 acres of trust land that becomes part of their reservation. The Bureau of Land Management is relieved of management responsibilities for the 80-acre parcel.

Who Bears the Burden and How

The Department of the Interior must conduct boundary surveys within 180 days and assume trust responsibility. The gaming prohibition limits economic development options for the tribe. The Secretary must review the land and potentially perform surveys.
