                                         [To accompany S. 683]
                    The Committee  on Energy and Natural Resources, to which was
                  referred the bill (S. 683), to modify the boundary of the Berryessa
                  Snow  Mountain  National Monument   to include certain Federal
                  land in Lake  County, California, and for other purposes, having
                  considered the same, reports favorably thereon without amendment
                  and recommends  that the bill do pass.
                                             PURPOSE
                    The purpose of S. 683 is to modify the boundary of the Berryessa
                  Snow   Mountain  National Monument   to include approximately
                  3,925 acres of Federal land in Lake County, California.
                                      BACKGROUND  AND  NEED
                    Berryessa Snow  Mountain National Monument   was established
                  in 2015 by Presidential Proclamation 9298 under the authority of
                  the Antiquities Act. The 330,000 acre National Monument is man-
                  aged jointly by the Bureau of Land Management  and  the Forest
                  Service, and provides for outdoor recreational opportunities, impor-
                  tant habitat for fish and wildlife, and contains significant cultural
                  and historic resources that are significant to over two dozen feder-
                  ally recognized tribes.
                    S. 683 would add approximately 3,925 acres of Federal land to
                  the National Monument,  known as Walker Ridge (which would be
                  renamed  to Molok Luyak,  or Condor Ridge in the Patwin lan-
                  guage), adjacent to the existing National Monument boundary.
