- Requires the Secretary of the Interior to convey the land to Doyon, Limited within one year of enactment, subject to valid existing rights.

- Reserves public easements under Section 17(b) of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act and adjusts the Denali National Park and Preserve boundary to exclude the transferred land.
- Exempts the conveyance from certain federal land regulations and existing withdrawals, and allows minor survey corrections with Doyon's written approval.
