Requires federal land managers in New Mexico to negotiate a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the New Mexico Land Grant Council to address permits, fees, vehicle/equipment use, maintenance, and notice/consultation processes for historical or traditional noncommercial uses by qualified land grant community users. It also directs federal land managers to consider how other planned uses affect those historical or traditional uses in applicable federal land‑use plans, and preserves existing tribal, state, and permitted rights while clarifying the Act does not create any new right to use federal land.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources.
