Nothing in this Act affects the jurisdiction or responsibility of the State with respect to fish and wildlife in the State. Nothing in this Act creates a protective perimeter or buffer zone around covered land. The fact that a nonwilderness activity or use on land outside of the covered land can be seen or heard from within covered land shall not preclude the conduct of the activity or use outside the boundary of the covered land. As soon as practicable after the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary or the Secretary of the Interior, as appropriate, shall file a map and a legal description of each wilderness area designated by paragraphs
(23)through
(25)of section 2(a) of the Colorado Wilderness Act of 1993 ( 16 U.S.C. 1132 note; Public Law 103–77 ) (as added by section 3) and the Special Management Areas with— the Committee on Natural Resources of the House of Representatives; and the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources of the Senate. Each map and legal description filed under paragraph
(1)shall have the same force and effect as if included in this Act, except that the Secretary or the Secretary of the Interior, as appropriate, may correct clerical and typographical errors in each map and legal description. Each map and legal description filed under paragraph
(1)shall be on file and available for public inspection in the appropriate offices of the Bureau of Land Management and the Forest Service. The Secretary or the Secretary of the Interior, as appropriate, may acquire any land or interest in land within the boundaries of a Special Management Area or the wilderness designated under paragraphs
(23)through
(25)of section 2(a) of the Colorado Wilderness Act of 1993 ( 16 U.S.C. 1132 note; Public Law 103–77 ) (as added by section 3) only through exchange, donation, or purchase from a willing seller. Any land or interest in land acquired under paragraph
(1)shall be incorporated into, and administered as a part of, the wilderness or Special Management Area in which the land or interest in land is located. The grazing of livestock on covered land, if established before the date of enactment of this Act, shall be permitted to continue subject to such reasonable regulations as are considered necessary by the Secretary with jurisdiction over the covered land, in accordance with— section 4(d)(4) of the Wilderness Act ( 16 U.S.C. 1133(d)(4) ); and the applicable guidelines set forth in Appendix A of the report of the Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs of the House of Representatives accompanying H.R. 2570 of the 101st Congress (H. Rept. 101–405) or H.R. 5487 of the 96th Congress (H. Rept. 96–617). Subject to valid rights in existence on the date of enactment of this Act, the covered land and the approximately 6,590 acres generally depicted on the map entitled Proposed Naturita Canyon Mineral Withdrawal Area and dated March 8, 2018, is withdrawn from— entry, appropriation, and disposal under the public land laws; location, entry, and patent under mining laws; and operation of the mineral leasing, mineral materials, and geothermal leasing laws.
