Summary

Money and fees the U.S. collects from running the national recreation area must be treated the same way as similar money in the national park system. If the Interior Department determines that some of those receipts — including money from mining — can be linked to land owned by an Indian, that money must be paid to the Indian owner. Other fees and income from mining or from activities covered by other public land laws must be handled under the rules of those other laws.
