This law lets the tribe give land for a Sioux history center. The tribe may convey up to 40 acres so the Secretary can build interpretive facilities. Congress must review the deal's terms for 60 days before it can happen.

This section allows the Oglala Sioux Tribe to give land for a visitor-education building. The tribe may convey, and the Secretary of the Interior may acquire, up to forty acres of tribally owned land on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. The purpose is to build permanent facilities there that interpret two things: the natural features of Badlands National Park, and the history of the Sioux Nation. There's a waiting requirement before the land can actually change hands. The conveyance cannot happen until sixty days after its terms have been submitted to the Interior and Insular Affairs Committees of the House of Representatives and the Senate — giving Congress a chance to review the deal first.
