After the land trade in section 221c is finished, the United States gives up any rights it has to an existing road on the landowner's other property in the park. The law describes the road's centerline by exact survey directions and distances.

This section deals with an existing road, once the land trade described in section 221c of this title is complete. When that trade is finished, the United States gives up — and formally quitclaims — any right, title, or interest it holds in a road that already exists on a different piece of the same owner's land inside Grand Canyon National Park. The section describes the centerline of that road using exact survey directions and distances: it starts near the south quarter corner of section 17, township 30 north, range 4 east, in Arizona, then runs northwest in three straight segments (500 feet, 145 feet, and 1,700 feet) to reach the east line of the west half of the west half of section 17.
