SEC. 204. ADJACENT MANAGEMENT. 
(a) NO
PROTECTIVE

mechanized equipment, to manage wildfires in the wilder-
ness areas designated by section 201. 
SEC. 206. WATER RIGHTS. 
(a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 
(1) The lands designated as wilderness areas by 
section 201 are located at the headwaters of the 
streams and rivers on those lands, with few, if any, 
actual or proposed water resource facilities located 
upstream from such lands and few, if any, opportu-
nities for diversion, storage, or other uses of water 
occurring outside such lands that would adversely 
affect the wilderness values of such lands. 
(2) The lands designated as wilderness areas by 
section 201 are not suitable for use for development 
of new water resource facilities or for the expansion 
of existing facilities. 
(3) Therefore, it is possible to provide for prop-
er management and protection of the wilderness 
value of the lands designated as wilderness areas by 
section 201 in ways different from the ways utilized 
in other laws designating wilderness areas. 
(b) PURPOSE.—The purpose of this section is to pro-
tect the wilderness values of the lands designated as wil-
derness areas by section 201 by means other than a feder-
ally reserved water right.

201; 
(2) shall affect any water rights in the State of 
Idaho existing on the date of the enactment of this 
Act, including any water rights held by the United 
States; 
(3) shall be construed as establishing a prece-
dent with regard to any future wilderness designa-

tion water among and between the State of Idaho 
and other States; and 
(5) shall be construed as limiting, altering, 
modifying, or amending provisions of Public Law 
92–400, which established the Sawtooth National 
Recreation Area (16 U.S.C. 460aa et seq.).

ment of this Act, with respect to the wilderness areas des-
ignated by section 201. 
(e) NEW PROJECTS.— 
(1) PROHIBITION.—Except as otherwise pro-
vided in this Act, on and after the date of the enact-
ment of this Act, neither the President nor any

ignated by section 201.

the purposes and principles of the Wilderness Act, man-
agement activities to maintain or restore fish and wildlife

management plans, in accordance with appropriate poli-
cies such as those set forth in Appendix B of House Re-
port 101–405 of the 101st Congress, including the occa-
sional and temporary use of motorized vehicles, if such 
use, as determined by the Secretary concerned would pro-
mote healthy, viable, and more naturally distributed wild-
life populations that would enhance wilderness values and 
accomplish those purposes using the minimum tool nec-
essary to reasonably accomplish the task. 
(c) USE
OF AIRCRAFT.—Consistent with section 
4(d)(1) of the Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1133(d)) and 
in accordance with appropriate policies such as those set 
forth in Appendix B of House Report 101–405 of the
