The bill transfers about 160 acres from Forest Service management to the National Park Service, adding it to Yosemite National Park. In exchange, about 170 acres moves from the Park Service to the Forest Service, becoming part of Stanislaus National Forest. It also sets rules for future minor boundary fixes, hazardous material cleanup responsibility, and handling of existing leases, permits, and easements.
Forest Service and Park Service staff who manage these lands are directly affected, along with permit or easement holders like utility companies, recreational users, and researchers.
The swap changes which federal agency oversees rules, trails, and resources on the affected 330 acres, though it doesn't affect private land ownership or other states.
