Bill > HR462

This bill, known as the Utah National Guard Readiness Act, directs the Secretary of the Interior, through the Bureau of Land Management (BLM), to transfer approximately 420 acres of federal land to the state of Utah without any cost. This land is currently part of the public lands set aside for military use by the Utah National Guard at Camp Williams. The primary purpose of this transfer is to allow the Utah National Guard to continue using this land for its training and readiness activities. The bill also specifies that a previous executive order affecting this land will no longer apply, and the land will revert to the United States if it is sold or used for purposes other than those related to the National Guard or national defense. However, if the land contains hazardous materials and is subject to reversion, Utah will pay the fair market value for that portion, and the reversionary interest will not apply to it.
