Under existing law, the Administrator of the Division of State Lands of the State Department of Conservation and Natural Resources is authorized to lease certain land owned by the State of Nevada for certain purposes, including for the purpose of grazing livestock, and sets forth the manner in which the fee for the lease of land for the grazing of livestock is determined. (NRS 322.010, 322.075) Section 1 of this bill requires that fees for the lease of lands for grazing livestock on any land under the jurisdiction of the Division of State Parks of the Department must be deposited in the Account for Maintenance of State Parks within the Division of State Parks and used in the area or region in which the fee was collected.

(NRS 407.0762) Section 3 of this bill requires that any fee collected for the lease of land owned by the State for grazing livestock on any land under the jurisdiction of the Division of State Parks must be deposited in the Account.
