Reversionary Interest Conveyance Act

# Reversionary Interest Conveyance Act Summary **What the Bill Does** This bill allows the federal government to sell its remaining interest in approximately 8.43 acres of land in Sacramento, California. Currently, the U.S. government holds what's called a "reversionary interest"—essentially a claim that the land would return to federal ownership under certain conditions. The bill directs the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) to offer to sell this interest to the current private landowner.

The landowner would need to pay fair market value for the land interest, plus all costs associated with the sale (surveys, appraisals, paperwork, etc.). **Who It Affects and Key Details** This primarily affects the current property owner in Sacramento, California, who would have the opportunity to fully own their land without federal claims. The bill protects any existing legal rights on the property and requires money from the sale to go into a Federal Land Disposal Account. The BLM must respond to a sale request within two years. **Current Status** The bill has passed the House and is moving through the legislative process. It is a relatively narrow, location-specific bill affecting one particular parcel of California land.
