in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

This law lets the Interior Secretary lease land in Mesa Verde National Park. The Secretary sets the terms and conditions for these leases. Money from leases goes to the U.S. Treasury. Leases can't cover prehistoric ruins or block public access to them.

This section lets the Secretary of the Interior grant leases and permits for using the land, or developing its resources, inside Mesa Verde National Park. The Secretary sets the terms and conditions for these leases and permits. Any money earned from these leases and permits must be paid into the Treasury of the United States. These leases or grants cannot include any of the park's prehistoric ruins. The public must always keep free and convenient access to those ruins — a lease cannot shut them out.
