S 2871 United States Senate · 119th Congress

Pit River Land Transfer Act of 2025

This bill transfers approximately 583.79 acres of federal land (excluding 20 acres of roads) from the U.S. Forest Service to the Pit River Tribe in trust for the tribe's benefit. The land becomes part of the tribe's reservation and is administered by the Secretary of the Interior under standard federal trust regulations. Key provisions require a survey within 180 days of enactment and explicitly prohibit the land from being used for tribal gaming under federal law. The bill directly affects the Pit River Tribe (including its XL Ranch, Big Bend, Likely, Lookout, Montgomery Creek, and Roaring Creek Rancherias) by expanding their reservation land base.
