Transfer of Mississippi National Forest Land for Public Recreation Development.
This law authorizes the Secretary of Agriculture to sell approximately 310 acres of Homochitto National Forest land in Mississippi to the local Scenic Rivers Development Alliance. The goal is to support rural economic development around Okhissa Lake. The sale includes strict conditions ensuring the land is used only for public recreation and wildlife habitat, while protecting existing public access roads and trails.
Key points
About 310 acres of federal land will be conveyed to a local entity for public recreation and conservation development, sold at fair market value.
Public access to Okhissa Lake and trails is protected, as the federal government reserves rights-of-way for existing roads and trails on the conveyed property.
The local Alliance must assume full responsibility for the maintenance and safety compliance of the Okhissa Lake Dam and related water facilities.
The land cannot be subdivided for residential housing; if the use changes from public recreation, the federal government retains the right to reclaim the property.
