The law (H.R. 1043) directs DOI to convey ~3,400 acres to La Paz County at fair market value.
Authoritative legislative sources confirm that H.R. 1043, the "La Paz County Solar Energy and Job Creation Act," directs the Department of the Interior (through the Bureau of Land Management) to convey approximately 3,400 acres of federally managed BLM land in La Paz County, Arizona, to La Paz County at fair market value if the county requests the land.
The official Congress.gov summary for H.R. 1043 states that the bill "directs the Department of the Interior, after receiving a request from La Paz County, Arizona, to convey approximately 3,400 acres of identified land managed by the Bureau of Land Management to the county for fair market value," which matches the claim. A CBO cost estimate likewise describes the bill as requiring BLM to convey "approximately 3,400 acres of land at fair market value to La Paz County, Arizona." Therefore, the statement is True because it accurately reflects the bill’s directive on acreage, the type and location of land, the responsible department, and the fair-market-value condition, with only minor omitted procedural detail (the county’s request) that does not change the substance of the claim.
