Mr. Speaker, S. 677 introduced by Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell of Colorado would authorize the Secretary of the Interior to revise the boundary of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park and Gunnison Gorge National Conservation Area through various exchanges and purchases with willing sellers. In addition, S. 677 would authorize the Secretary to transfer lands under the jurisdiction of the Bureau of Land Management and ensure that any grazing rights involved in the land transfer would be continued. Finally, Section 5 on the bill clarifies that the Commissioner of the Bureau of Reclamation shall have access to and retain jurisdiction over certain roads and areas in the park in addition to roads and facilities in the East portal and Crystal Dam areas. Mr. Speaker, S. 677 is supported by the administration and the majority and minority of the committee. I urge adoption of the bill.
