A bill to require the Secretary of Agriculture to release a reversionary interest in certain land in the Black River State Forest in Millston, Wisconsin, and for other purposes.
Summary
This bill would direct the Secretary of Agriculture to release a reversionary interest in a specific parcel of land located in the Black River State Forest in Millston, Wisconsin. A reversionary interest is a legal claim that allows the original owner or their designee to regain ownership of property under certain conditions. By releasing this interest, the federal government would relinquish its claim to the land, potentially allowing it to be transferred to or remain with the current owner or another party.
The practical effect of this legislation, if enacted, would be to clarify or transfer land ownership in this Wisconsin forest area. This could affect local land management, property rights, or resource use in the region. The bill has been reported out of the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry, indicating it has received committee consideration, though it has not yet advanced to a full Senate vote.
