    (j) Native American Uses and Interests.--In recognition of the past 
use of the Outstanding Natural Area by Indians and Indian tribes for

reasonable access to the Outstanding Natural Area by Indians and Indian 
tribes for such traditional cultural and religious purposes. In 
implementing this section, the Secretary, upon the request of a 
federally recognized Indian tribe or Indian religious community, may 
temporarily close to the general public use of one or more specific 
portions of the Outstanding Natural Area in order to protect the 
privacy of traditional cultural and religious activities in such areas 
by the federally recognized Indian tribe or Indian religious community. 
Any such closure shall be made to affect the smallest practicable area

U.S.C. 1996 et seq.; commonly referred to as the ``American Indian 
Religious Freedom Act'').
    (k) No Buffer Zones.--The designation of the Outstanding Natural 
Area is not intended to lead to the creation of protective perimeters 
or buffer zones around the area. The fact that activities outside the 
Outstanding Natural Area and not consistent with the purposes of this 
Act can be seen or heard within the Outstanding Natural Area shall not, 
of itself, preclude such activities or uses up to the boundary of the 
Outstanding Natural Area.
