Washoe County School District all right, title, and interest of the 
United States in the property described as a portion of the Northwest 
quarter of Section 15, Township 16 North, Range 18 East, M.D.B. & M., 
more particularly described as Parcel 1 of Parcel Map No. 426 for Boise

    (c) Use; Reversion.--The conveyance of the property under 
subsection (a) shall be for the sole purpose of the construction of an

    (d) Consideration Based on Requirement To Use for Limited Public

under subsection (a) shall be available to the Secretary without 
further appropriation and shall remain available until expended for the

the orderly disposal of certain Federal lands in Nevada and for the 
acquisition of certain other lands in the Lake Tahoe Basin, and for 
other purposes'', approved December 23, 1980 (94 Stat. 3381; commonly
