Two limits on what the County receives. Rights that others already hold in the land survive the conveyance, and the Secretary may attach whatever terms and conditions the Secretary determines to be necessary. The subsection does not list those terms or say what rights exist.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
