of public access when necessary for purposes
of national security or public safety.
(iii) Procedures and guidelines to pro-
vide for the installation of temporary com-
munications, 
instrumentation, 
or 
other
equipment necessary for effective testing and
training to meet military requirements.
(B) INTERIM OPERATIONS.—Military oper-
ations in the Dugway Proving Ground and in
the Utah Test and Training Range shall not be
limited or restricted in any way pending the
completion of the memorandum of understanding
required by subparagraph (A).
(g) LIVESTOCK.—Within the Pilot Range Wilderness,
the grazing of livestock, where established prior to the date
of the enactment of this Act, shall be permitted to continue
subject to such reasonable regulations, policies, and prac-
tices as the Secretary deems necessary, as long as such regu-
lations, policies, and practices fully conform with and im-
plement the intent of Congress regarding grazing in such
areas as such intent is expressed in the Wilderness Act, sec-
tion 101(f) of Public Law 101–628, and House Report 101–

(h) WATER RIGHTS.—Nothing in this Act, the Wilder-
ness Act, or any action taken pursuant thereto shall con-
stitute an express or implied reservation of surface or
groundwater by any person, including the United States.
Nothing in this Act affects any valid existing water rights
in existence before the date of the enactment of this Act,
including any water rights held by the United States. If
the United States determines that additional water re-
sources are needed for the purposes of this Act, the United
States shall work with or through any agency that is eligible
to hold in-stream flow water rights to acquire such rights
in accordance with the water laws of the State of Utah.
SEC. 3. WILDERNESS RELEASE.
Lands that are within the Pilot Range in Utah not
designated as wilderness by this Act are no longer subject
to the plan amendment process initiated by the Secretary
and identified by the Federal Register Notice dated March
18, 1999, page 13499.
SEC. 4. ADJACENT MANAGEMENT.
The Congress does not intend for the designation of the
Pilot Range Wilderness to lead to the creation of protective
perimeters or buffer zones around any such wilderness. The
fact that nonwilderness activities or uses can be seen or
heard within the Pilot Range Wilderness shall not, of itself,
preclude such activities or uses up to the boundary of that
wilderness.
SEC. 5. WITHDRAWAL.
Subject to valid existing rights, the Federal lands with-
in the Pilot Range Wilderness are hereby withdrawn from
all forms of entry, appropriation, or disposal under the
public land laws; and from location, entry, and patent
under the United States mining laws; and from disposition
under all laws pertaining to mineral and geothermal leas-
ing, and mineral materials, and all amendments thereto.
