On the recordOctober 1, 2002
S. 434 would provide compensation for the Yankton Sioux and Santee Sioux Indian tribes for tribal lands condemned for the Pick-Sloan Missouri River Basin program project. The second title of this bill is the text of my bill, H.R. 4103, which has already passed the House. It would direct the Secretary of the Interior to offer to sell 940 acres of BLM land in the Natrona County, Wyoming, to the LDS Church for the purpose of its historic preservation, public education and enjoyment of the public. Funds from the sale would be directed for the sole purpose of public understanding and enjoyment of the National Historic Trail System at the National Historic Trails Interpretive Center in Casper, Wyoming.
