The Secretary can give New Mexico a right-of-way to build a public road to the caverns. New Mexico must build the road to National Park Service standards and, once it's finished, agree to give the land and any improvements back to the United States at no cost. The Secretary decides exactly where the road goes, after talking with New Mexico officials.

This section lets the Secretary grant land for a state-built road to the caverns. The Secretary may convey to New Mexico a right-of-way, running from the southeast quarter of section 34 to the caverns, so the state can build a park-type road for public use. This comes with a condition: the road must meet National Park Service road standards, and once it's finished, the state must give back its interest in the land and any improvements, at no cost to the United States. The Secretary picks the road's exact route, after consulting New Mexico officials.
