SEC. 203. ACQUISITION OF MINERAL INTERESTS AND 
LANDS FROM WILLING SELLERS. 
(a) ACQUISITION.—Within the boundaries of the wil-
derness areas designated by section 201, the Secretary 
concerned may acquire, through purchase from willing 
sellers or donation from willing owners, all right, title, and 
interest in all mineral interests and parcels of land that 
have been patented under the Act of May 10, 1872 (30 
U.S.C. 22 et seq.; commonly known as the Mining Act 
of 1872).
(b) CONSIDERATION.—In exercising the authority 
provided by subsection (a) to acquire lands and interests, 
the Secretary concerned shall offer the owners of record 
of each patent, who voluntarily wish to sell, $20,000 as 
compensation for the acquisition of these interests. The 
Secretary concerned shall make such offers as soon as 
practicable after the date of the enactment of this Act and 
such offers shall remain open for acceptance during the 
five-year period beginning on such date. 
(c) INCORPORATION
IN WILDERNESS AREA.—Any 
land or interest in land located inside the boundaries of

quired by the United States after the date of the enact-

SEC. 204. ADJACENT MANAGEMENT. 
(a) NO
PROTECTIVE
PERIMETERS
OR
BUFFER 
ZONES.—Congress does not intend for the designation of 
the wilderness areas by section 201 to lead to the creation 
of protective perimeters or buffer zones around any such 
wilderness area. 
(b) NONWILDERNESS ACTIVITIES.—The fact that 
nonwilderness activities or uses outside of a wilderness 
area designated by section 201 can be seen or heard from 
inside of the wilderness area shall not preclude the conduct
of those activities or uses outside the boundaries of the 
wilderness area. 
SEC. 205. WILDFIRE MANAGEMENT. 
Consistent with section 4 of the Wilderness Act (16 
U.S.C. 1133), nothing in this title precludes a Federal, 
State, or local agency from conducting wildfire manage-
ment operations, including operations using aircraft or 
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. 
(c) STATUTORY CONSTRUCTION.—Nothing in this 
title— 
(1) shall constitute, or be construed to con-
stitute, either an express or implied reservation by 
the United States of any water or water rights with 
respect to the wilderness areas designated by section 
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-
tions; 
(4) shall be construed as limiting, altering, 
modifying, or amending any of the interstate com-
pacts or equitable apportionment decrees that appor-
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.). 
(d) IDAHO WATER LAW.—The Secretary concerned 
shall follow the procedural and substantive requirements 
of the law of the State of Idaho when seeking to establish 
any water rights, not in existence on the date of the enact-
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 
other officer, employee, or agent of the United 
States shall fund, assist, authorize, or issue a license 
or permit for the development of any new water re-
source facility inside any of the wilderness areas des-
ignated by section 201. 
(2) DEFINITION.—In this subsection, the term 
‘‘water resource facility’’ means irrigation and 
pumping facilities, reservoirs, water conservation 
works, aqueducts, canals, ditches, pipelines, wells,
hydropower projects, and transmission and other an-
cillary facilities, and other water diversion, storage, 
and carriage structures. 
SEC. 207. WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT. 
(a) STATE JURISDICTION.—In accordance with sec-
tion 4(d)(7) of the Wilderness Act (16 U.S.C. 1133(d)(7)), 
nothing in this title affects or diminishes the jurisdiction 
of the State of Idaho with respect to fish and wildlife man-
agement, including the regulation of hunting, fishing, and 
trapping, in the wilderness areas designated by section 
201. 
(b) MANAGEMENT ACTIVITIES.—In furtherance of 
the purposes and principles of the Wilderness Act, man-
agement activities to maintain or restore fish and wildlife 
populations and the habitats to support such populations 
may be carried out within wilderness areas designated by 
section 201 where consistent with relevant wilderness 
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
