The Geese House Site Conveyance Act transfers approximately 21,578 acres of federal land in the Denali National Park and Preserve to Doyon, Limited, an Alaska Native corporation, as part of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act process. The land transfer must occur within one year of the bill's enactment and is subject to certain restrictions that prohibit Doyon from mining, transferring the land to non-federal entities, or developing it in ways that would damage the cultural significance of the Geese House site. The bill also requires the Secretary of the Interior to adjust the boundary of Denali National Park and Preserve to exclude the conveyed land and maintain public easements as required under existing law. No specific federal funding is allocated in the legislation, as this is primarily a land transfer rather than a spending measure.
