To direct the Secretary of the Interior to convey to the Nisqually Indian Tribe the Clear Creek Hatchery infrastructure.
This bill directs the U.S. Department of the Interior to transfer ownership of the Clear Creek Hatchery infrastructure to the Nisqually Indian Tribe within 90 days of enactment. The transfer includes 26 specific physical assets (like ponds, dams, fish ladders, and associated pipes/fences) as defined by maps dated December 2024, with no cost to the tribe and subject to existing rights. The Secretary must finalize and make public a map and legal description of the property, with the map taking precedence in case of discrepancies. This is a direct property transfer to the Nisqually Tribe, affecting only the tribe and the federal government as the current owner.
