Sarvis Creek Wilderness Completion Act

This bill would add about 6,817 acres of land in the Routt National Forest in Colorado to the Sarvis Creek Wilderness, based on a map dated February 26, 2024. It does this by amending the Colorado Wilderness Act of 1993. The bill states that it does not affect the treaty rights of any Indian Tribe, and it allows the Secretary of Agriculture to permit Tribes to access and use the added land for traditional, religious, and cultural purposes. It also allows the Secretary to carry out activities needed to control fire, insects, and diseases in the added area.
