Florida Wilderness Act of 1982

Summary

Apalachicola and Osceola Wilderness Act of 1981 - Designates the following lands in Florida as components of the National Wilderness Preservation System: (1) the Bradwell Bay Wilderness Addition and the Mud Swamp/New River Wilderness in the Apalachicola National Forest; and (2) the Big Gum Swamp Wilderness in the Osceola National Forest. Prohibits the Department of the Interior from issuing phosphate leases in the Osceola National Forest, Florida, unless and until the United States determines that the mining of phosphate deposits in such leases would be necessary to the national interest. Directs the Secretary of the Interior, within three years from the date of enactment of this Act, with respect to specified applicants for phosphate preference right leases which have made discoveries of valuable deposits, to exchange their applications for leases covering other minerals. Requires such an exchange to be of equal value, with a payment of money to the Secretary or the applicant if necessary, so long as such payment does not exceed 25 percent of the value of the leases to be issued by the Secretary. Permits disapproval of any such exchange, within 60 days, by a specified committee of either House. Provides that the designation of the Big Guam Swamp Wilderness will not alter phosphate lease rights applicable to lands within the wilderness.
