(2) The Grand Staircase-Escalante National
Monument was planned and its boundaries were
drawn in secret, without the type of public input
that is generally conducive to sound decision mak-
ing.
(3) As a result of the lack of public input in the
development of the Grand Staircase-Escalante Na-
tional Monument, several parcels of Federal land
were included within the boundaries of the national
monument that are not suited for inclusion or that
would better serve the public interest if managed in
another capacity.

present boundaries of the Grand Staircase-Escalante
National Monument would better serve the public in-
terest if ownership of the parcels were transferred to
the State of Utah or a local government.

ESCALANTE NATIONAL MONUMENT, UTAH.
(a) EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN LANDS.—The bound-
aries of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monu-

city, village, and township that has jurisdiction over
property proposed to be included in the Heritage
Area written notice of that proposal.

administered in accordance with this title.

MENT ENTITY.

management entity for the Heritage Area.

Partnership may receive amounts appropriated to
carry out this title.

for the Heritage Area is not submitted to the Sec-
retary as required under section 106 within the time
