AI Summary

This bill provides for a land exchange between the Federal Law Enforcement Training Centers (FLETC) and Caza Ranches LLC in Artesia, New Mexico. Specifically, the bill authorizes the Secretary of Homeland Security to accept approximately 160 acres of non-Federal land from Caza Ranches LLC in exchange for conveying approximately 160 acres of Federal land back to the company. The exchange is to be conducted at no cost to either party, with the lands deemed to be of equal value, and the costs of the exchange to be shared equally. Upon completion of the exchange, the non-Federal land will be added to the FLETC and used for training purposes, while the Federal land will be excluded from the Centers' boundaries. The bill includes provisions for minor boundary adjustments, error corrections, and requires that all exchange terms be documented in a written agreement signed by both parties. The land exchange is subject to any existing valid rights and additional terms the Secretary determines necessary to protect U.S. interests. The specific parcels are identified by their legal descriptions and parcel numbers, and a map depicting the lands will be filed and made available for public inspection at the New Mexico headquarters of the Department of Homeland Security.
