Allows the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) lands anywhere within Arizona and New Mexico to be exchanged for lands within 18 miles of those trust lands. Gives the Navajo Tribe the right to deselect not more than 757 acres of the land selected as of January 2014, whether or not such land has already been taken into trust by the Secretary of the Interior.
