This bill directs the Department of the Interior, after receiving a request from La Paz County, Arizona, to convey approximately 3,400 acres of identified land managed by the Bureau of Land Management to the county for fair market value.

As a condition of the conveyance, La Paz County and any subsequent owner must
make good faith efforts to avoid disturbing tribal artifacts;
minimize impacts on tribal artifacts if they are disturbed;
