Sec. 459u. Exchange of recreational demonstration project lands
by grantee
In order to facilitate the administration of former recreational
demonstration project lands and to consolidate the holdings of the
grantees to whom such lands have been or may be granted pursuant to
sections 459r to 459t of this title, the Secretary of the Interior may
authorize any such grantee to exchange or otherwise dispose of any lands
or interests in lands conveyed to it in order to acquire other lands or
interests therein of approximately equal value.
For the aforesaid purpose, the Secretary is authorized to execute a
release, as to the particular lands involved, of any condition providing
for a reversion of title to the United States, that may be contained in
the conveyance by the United States to said grantee. No such release
shall be executed, however, unless the grantee shall agree, in form
satisfactory to the Secretary, that the lands to be acquired by it shall
be subject to the conditions contained in the original conveyance from
the United States, except that in lieu of a provision for reversion, the
grantee shall agree to convey said lands to the United States upon a
finding by the Secretary in accordance with the procedure provided in
said sections, that the grantee has not complied with such conditions
during a period of more than three years. Lands so conveyed to the
United States shall be subject to administration or disposition in like
manner as recreational demonstration project lands that revert to the
United States under the terms of the aforesaid sections.
