    4. At 8 a.m., on January 11, 1996, the lands described in 
paragraphs 2 and 3 will be opened to the operation of the public land 
laws generally, subject to valid existing rights, the provisions of 
existing withdrawals, other segregations of record, and the 
requirements of applicable law. All valid applications received at or 
prior to 8 a.m. on January 11, 1996, shall be considered as 
simultaneously filed at that time. Those received thereafter shall be 
considered in the order of filing.
    5. At 8:00 a.m., on January 11, 1996, in the lands described in 
paragraph 2 will be opened to location and entry under the general 
mining laws, subject to valid existing rights, the provisions of 
existing withdrawals, other segregations of record, and the 
requirements of applicable law. Appropriation of any of the lands 
described in paragraph 2 under the general mining laws prior to the 
date and time of restoration is unauthorized. Any such attempted 
appropriation, including attempted adverse possession under 30 U.S.C. 
38 (1988), shall vest no rights against the United States. Acts 
required to establish a location and to initiate a right of possession 
are governed by State law where not in conflict with Federal law. The 
Bureau of Land Management will not intervene in disputes between rival 
locators over possessory rights since Congress has provided for such 
determinations in local courts.
    6. The purpose of this exchange was to acquire non-federal lands 
that have high values for wildlife, livestock grazing, and recreational 
use. This exchange created a more logical and efficient land management 
pattern that will better serve the public's interest.
