The total acreage of the national monument, as revised pursuant to this subsection, shall not exceed its present area of approximately one hundred fifty-four thousand one hundred and nineteen acres.

The revision of boundaries of the national monument, as authorized in this subsection, shall be accomplished by the issuance, by the Secretary, of an appropriate order, or orders, to be effective upon publication in the Federal Register. The federally owned land under the administrative jurisdiction of any other department or agency of the Federal Government shall be included within the monument only with the approval of the head of the department or agency.

Administrative jurisdiction over all Federal lands eliminated from the monument, by the issuance of an order or orders of the Secretary, is hereby transferred to the Secretary of Agriculture for use, administration, and disposition in accordance with the provisions of title III of the Bankhead-Jones Farm Tenant Act and the related provisions of title IV thereof. All of the lands formerly set apart and reserved from the public domain shall be subject to the mining and minerals-leasing laws. Disposition of any such lands formerly set apart and reserved from the public domain shall be evidenced by patents issued by the Secretary of the Interior.

In order that exchanges of land may be effectuated for the purposes of this subsection, the Secretary is authorized, in his discretion and in accordance with the provisions of section 355 of the Revised Statutes, to accept, on behalf of the United States, title to any land or interests in land within the exterior boundaries of the Badlands National Monument as revised pursuant to this subsection, and, in exchange therefor, with the approval and concurrence of the Secretary of Agriculture, the Secretary may patent lands of approximately equal value which were formerly set apart and reserved from the public domain within the Badlands Fall River soil conservation project, SD-LU-1. In effectuating such exchanges, in lieu of conveyances by the Secretary, the Secretary of

Agriculture may convey lands of approximately equal value within said project which have been acquired heretofore by the United States. All such exchanges shall, in all other respects, be considered as exchanges under the provisions of section 32c, title III, of the Bankhead-Jones Farm Tenant Act and shall otherwise be in accordance with provisions of said Act, except that, upon acceptance of title to any lands so acquired by the United States under this section, such lands and any other lands acquired otherwise by the United States within the monument boundaries shall be a part of that area.
