The Secretary may trade federal land for the tracts described in section 45a-1. Tract A's owner gets Tract D in exchange. Tracts B and C's owner gets Tract E, worth about the same amount.

This section sets up land swaps connected to section 45a–1 of this title. In exchange for Tract A being conveyed to the United States, the Secretary may — at his discretion, and subject to whatever conditions he thinks necessary — give the owner of Tract A a deed (a "patent") to Tract D instead. Tract D is about 2.5 acres, located in the southeast quarter of section 33, township 16 south, range 29 east, Mount Diablo meridian, Tulare County, California. It must be worth approximately the same as Tract A. In exchange for Tracts B and C being conveyed to the United States, the Secretary may similarly give their owner a deed to Tract E, worth approximately the same as Tracts B and C combined. Tract E consists of: the southwest quarter of the northwest quarter of section 4 (which stays subject to section 818 of this title); the south half of the northeast quarter of section 5; and about 68 acres of the north half of the southeast quarter of section 5 — not including a surveyed 200-foot strip shown on a specific map filed with the Federal Power Commission on December 12, 1923. All of Tract E sits in township 17 south, range 29 east, Mount Diablo meridian, and totals about 188 acres.
