    After the date of the enactment of this Act the Secretary of 
Agriculture shall not transfer (by exchange or otherwise) any lands 
owned by the United States and managed by the Secretary as part of the 
Angeles National Forest to any person unless the instrument of 
conveyance contains a restriction, enforceable by the Secretary, on the 
future use of such land prohibiting the use of any portion of such land 
as a solid waste landfill. Such restriction shall be promptly enforced 
by the Secretary when and if a violation of the restriction occurs.
