Apex Project, Nevada Land Transfer and Authorization Act Amendments Act

This bill modifies the Apex Project, Nevada Land Transfer and Authorization Act of 1989 to broaden its scope and update its provisions. A primary change involves expanding the entities eligible to receive land transfers, specifically adding the City of North Las Vegas, Nevada , and the Apex Industrial Park Owners Association alongside Clark County. The amendments allow these new entities, individually or jointly, to receive the Kerr-McGee Site and other authorized land transfers. Furthermore, the bill introduces a provision permitting the Secretary to sell mineral materials resulting from grading or land balancing within the Apex Site at fair market value, without advertising or bidding, even if the United States retains mineral interests. Finally, it explicitly mandates that all land transfers and rights-of-way issued under the Act must comply with applicable federal land laws, including the National Environmental Policy Act and the Federal Land Policy and Management Act.
