After 60 days, lands removed from the monument will be available for public land entry, mineral and geothermal leasing, and mining, subject to existing rights and applicable law. Within one year, the Departments of the Interior and Agriculture must reallocate voluntary relinquished livestock grazing permits unless doing so is inconsistent with monument management.
