  THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  Section 1.  Pursuant to section 1 of article 14 of the state constitu-
tion, as amended at the general election held  in  November,  2009,  the
legislature  approves the lands to be exchanged as specified in this act
and finds and determines that the property to be received by the  state,
described in section four of this act, is true and forest land and is at
least equal in value to the land conveyed by the state to National Grid,
described  in  section  five  of this act. The legislature further finds
that all provisions and requirements of  the  constitution  relating  to
this exchange have been met.
  S  2. The commissioner of general services, after certification to him
or her by the commissioner of environmental conservation that  title  to
the lands described in section four of this act has vested in the people
of the state of New York, shall issue letters patent to National Grid of
the lands described in section five of this act.
  Notwithstanding the provisions of the public lands law, the conveyance
by  the  state  may be without reservation of any minerals.  The letters
patent shall contain the following covenants and restrictions:
  (a) The property shall be used as a utility corridor and for no  other
purpose.
  (b)  National Grid shall not sell, transfer or subdivide the property,
except for the sale or transfer of the  property  to  any  affiliate  or
subsidiary of National Grid or a person or entity utilizing the property
for  similar/utility/communications  purposes  or  succeeding  to all or
substantially all of the assets of National Grid.
