Cerro de la Olla Wilderness Establishment Act

This bill would create the Cerro de la Olla Wilderness on about 12,295 acres of federal land managed by the Bureau of Land Management in Taos County, New Mexico, within the Rio Grande del Norte National Monument. It would allow the Secretary to permit upkeep of existing wildlife water structures, such as guzzlers, in the new wilderness if certain conditions are met. The Secretary would have to sign an agreement with the State of New Mexico within one year setting terms for wildlife management there. The bill would also change the boundary of the national monument as shown on a map dated April 1, 2025.
