The Pecos Watershed Protection Act aims to safeguard specific federal lands in the Pecos Watershed area of New Mexico by preventing mineral extraction and designating a portion of this land as a wilderness area. The primary objectives are to preserve the natural environment and ensure that the land remains protected from mining and other disruptive activities. Key provisions of the Act include the withdrawal of federal land from all forms of mineral entry, which means that no mining or mineral leasing can occur on this land.
