If the federal government conveys the fee title of any land to the State of South Dakota and that land is under the management of the Office of School and Public Lands, the Office of School and Public Lands may reconvey the fee title to another party if the land is no longer used or needed by the state. However, the state may hold a perpetual conservation easement to protect the public interest in preserving the archaeological and paleontological aspects on the land when the fee title is conveyed to another party. The conveyance documents shall specify the conservation easement and the conservation easement shall be made in accordance with §§ 1-19B-56 to 1-19B-60, inclusive.
