This law creates the City of Rocks National Reserve in Idaho, covering about 14,320 acres. It protects the area's history, culture, and scenery while managing recreation. The Interior Secretary had to file an official legal description with Congress within six months.

(a) In general: This section establishes the City of Rocks National Reserve. Its goals are to preserve and protect the reserve's significant historical and cultural resources, manage how it's used for recreation, protect and maintain its scenic quality, and explain its nationally important values to the public. (b) Area included: The reserve covers approximately 14,320 acres, shown on a map titled "Boundary Map, City of Rocks National Reserve, Idaho," numbered P30–80,005 and dated October 1987. That map is kept on file at the National Park Service and at the Idaho Governor's office, where the public can view it. (c) Legal description: Within six months after November 18, 1988, the Secretary of the Interior had to file an official legal description of the reserve with two congressional committees — the House Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs and the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. This legal description counts as if it were written directly into the law. The Secretary is allowed to fix clerical and typing errors in the description and the map, but nothing more. The legal description is also kept on file for public viewing at the National Park Service and the Idaho Governor's office.
