Summary

Directs the Secretary of the Interior to issue regulations necessary to maintain law and order and protect persons and property within reclamation projects and on reclamation lands. Prescribes criminal penalties for knowingly and willfully violating such regulations and provides that any person charged with a violation may be tried and sentenced by any U.S. magistrate judge.

Authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to: (1) authorize law enforcement personnel of the Department of the Interior, or of any other Federal agency that has law enforcement authority (except the Department of Defense) or of any State or local government, including an Indian tribe, when deemed economical and in the public interest, to enforce Federal laws and regulations on such lands; (2) cooperate with any State or local government in the enforcement of its laws or ordinances; and (3) provide reimbursement to a State or local government for expenditures incurred in enforcing Federal laws and regulations on such lands.

Allows such law enforcement officers to carry firearms, make certain arrests without warrants, execute any warrant or other process issued by a court or officer for the enforcement of the provisions of any Federal law or regulation, and conduct investigations on such lands.

Provides that State and local officers authorized to act as Federal law enforcement officers under this Act shall not be deemed to be Federal employees, except for purposes of the Federal Tort Claims Act and civil service workers compensation provisions.
