This legislation, titled the Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians Land Transfer Act of 2025, directs the Secretary of the Interior to take specific federal land in California into trust for the benefit of the Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians. It mandates the transfer of approximately 80 acres of Bureau of Land Management land and an additional 185 acres known as Indian Creek Ranch. This transfer must occur within 180 days of the Act's enactment, subject to valid existing rights. Upon transfer, the land will be declared part of the Tribe's Reservation and administered by the Secretary in accordance with laws generally applicable to property held in trust for Indian Tribes. A key provision of the Act is the explicit prohibition against using any of the newly acquired trust land for class II or class III gaming activities, as defined by the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act. Before the transfer, the Secretary is also required to review the land to determine if a survey is necessary, performing one if required, with minor corrections allowed for clerical or surveying errors.
