in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The United States gives back to Montana the legal authority it once held over the battlefield land. This takes effect once Montana accepts it under state law. The federal government still keeps shared legislative authority over the land.

This section returns some legal authority over the battlefield to Montana. The United States gives back to the State of Montana the jurisdiction that Montana had earlier ceded to the federal government over land within the Big Hole National Battlefield's boundaries. This return of jurisdiction takes effect once Montana accepts it, following Montana's own laws. Even so, the United States keeps concurrent legislative jurisdiction, meaning both the federal government and Montana share lawmaking authority over that land.

There is hereby retroceded to the State of Montana, effective when accepted by said State in accordance with its laws, such jurisdiction as has been ceded by such State to the United States over any lands within the boundaries of the Big Hole National Battlefield reserving in the United States, however, concurrent legislative jurisdiction over such lands.
