The bill establishes Slot Canyon Riverlands State Park in Dona Ana County, directing the state parks division of the energy, minerals, and natural resources department to develop and designate the park in accordance with a previously conducted feasibility study. The development plan emphasizes maximizing recreational opportunities, protecting wildlife habitats, restoring ecosystems, connecting trails, and completing a natural resource management plan. Additionally, the bill prohibits the sale, trade, barter, or exchange of any holdings in the designated parcels of the park, while allowing the division to acquire additional property and receive gifts for park enhancement.

To support the establishment and operation of Slot Canyon Riverlands State Park, the bill appropriates $9 million from the general fund for fiscal year 2026 and subsequent years. This funding is intended to ensure the successful development and management of the park, with any unspent funds at the end of the fiscal year not reverting to the general fund.
