(b) Equalization payment To the extent an equalization payment is necessary under section 206(b) of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 ( 43 U.S.C. 1716 ), the amount of such equalization payment shall first be made by way of in-kind transfer of such portion of the public exchange parcel to the conservation district, or transfer of such portion of the non-public exchange parcel to the United States, as the case may be, as may be necessary to equalize the fair market values of the exchanged properties, as such values are indicated by the appraisal provided for under the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 ( 43 U.S.C. 1716 ). Such appraisal shall include an appraisal of the public exchange parcel and the non-public exchange parcel. The fair market value of the public exchange parcel or non-public exchange parcel, as the case may be, shall be credited against any required equalization payment. To the extent such credit is not sufficient to offset the entire amount of equalization payment so indicated, any remaining amount of equalization payment shall be treated as follows: (1) If the equalization payment is to equalize values by which the public land exceeds the exchange land and the credited value of the non-public exchange parcel, conservation district may make the equalization payment to the United States, notwithstanding any limitation regarding the amount of the equalization payment under section 206(b) of the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 ( 43 U.S.C. 1716 ). In the event conservation district opts not to make the indicated equalization payment, the exchange shall not proceed. (2) If the equalization payment is to equalize values by which the exchange land exceeds the public land and the credited value of the public exchange parcel, the Secretary shall order the exchange without requirement of any additional equalization payment by the United States to the conservation district. (c) Map and legal descriptions As soon as practicable after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall finalize a map and legal descriptions of all land to be conveyed under this Act. The Secretary may correct any minor errors in the map or in the legal descriptions. The map and legal descriptions shall be on file and available for public inspection in appropriate offices of the Bureau of Land Management. (d) Costs of conveyance As a condition of conveyance, any costs related to the conveyance under this section shall be paid by the conservation district. 4. Applicable law (a) Act of February 20, 1909 (1) The Act of February 20, 1909 (35 Stat. 641), shall not apply to the public land and any public exchange land transferred under this Act. (2) The exchange of lands under this section shall be subject to continuing rights of the conservation district under the Act of February 20, 1909 (35 Stat. 641), on the exchange land and any exchanged portion of the non-public exchange parcel for the continued use, maintenance, operation, construction, or relocation of, or expansion of, groundwater recharge facilities on the exchange land, to accommodate groundwater recharge of the Bunker Hill Basin to the extent that such activities are not in conflict with any Habitat Conservation Plan or Habitat Management Plan under which such exchange land or non-public exchange parcel may be held or managed. (b) FLPMA Except as otherwise provided in this Act, the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 ( 43 U.S.C. 1701 , et seq.), shall apply to the exchange of land under this Act. 5.
