In accordance with applicable law, the Secretary may sell public land located in the County that has been identified as suitable for disposal based on specific criteria as listed in the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 ( 43 U.S.C. 1713 ) in the applicable resource management plan in existence on the date of enactment of this Act. Notwithstanding any other provision of law (other than a law that specifically provides for a portion of the proceeds of a land sale to be distributed to any trust fund of the State), proceeds from the sale of public land under subsection
(a)shall be deposited in a separate account in the Treasury, to be known as the Emery County, Utah, Land Acquisition Account (referred to in this section as the Account ). Amounts in the Account shall be available to the Secretary, without further appropriation, to purchase from willing sellers land or interests in land within a wilderness area or the Recreation Area. Any purchase of land or interest in land under subparagraph
(A)shall be in accordance with applicable law. To the extent that there are amounts in the Account in excess of the amounts needed to carry out subparagraph (A), the Secretary may use the excess amounts for the protection of cultural resources on Federal land within the County.
