<dd>"The final LEIS is part of the associated legislation (S. 2102), 'Timbisha Shoshone Homeland Act', which passed the Senate and House of Representatives and became enacted on October 17, 2000. The final LEIS provides two alternatives to be evaluated according to potential environmental impacts that could result from the transfer of several separate parcels of land identified by the National Park Service (NPS) and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to be held by the Secretary of the Interior in trust for the Timbisha Shoshone Tribe. The resources analyzed include: cultural resources, water resources, socio-economics and environmental justice, land use, recreation and wilderness, vegetation, and wildlife. The LEIS also evaluates the possible authorization to purchase two parcels of approximately 120 acres of former Indian allotted lands in Saline Valley, California, at the edge of Death Valley National Park, and the 2,430-acre Lida Ranch near Lida, Nevada, from private owners"--Preliminary page</dd>
