(d) BUFFER ZONES. —The Congress does not intend for the designation of wilderness areas pursuant to this Act to lead to the creation of protective perimeters or buffer zones around such wilderness areas. The fact that nonwildemess activities or uses can be seen or heard from areas within a wilderness shall not, of itself, preclude such activities or uses up to the boundary of the wilderness area. (e) WATER RIGHTS.— (1) With respect to each wilderness area designated by this Act, Congress hereby reserves a quantity of water sufficient to fulfill the purposes of this Act. The priority date of such reserved water rights shall be the date of enactment of this Act. (2) The Secretary of Agriculture and all other officers of the United States shall take steps necessary to protect the rights reserved by this Act, including the filing by the Secretary of Agriculture of a claim for the quantification of such rights in any present or future appropriate stream adjudication in the courts of the State of California in which the United States is or may be joined and which is conducted in accordance with section 208 of the Act of July 10, 1952 (Ch. 651, 66 Stat. 560; 43 U.S.C. 666) (commonly referred to as the "McCarran Amendment"). (3) Nothing in this Act shall be construed as a relinquishment or reduction of any water rights reserved or appropriated by the United States in the State of California on or before the date of enactment of this Act. (4) The Federal water rights reserved by this Act are specific to the wilderness areas located in the State of California designated by this Act. Nothing in this Act related to the reserved Federal water rights shall be construed as establishing a precedent with regard to any future designations, nor shall it constitute an interpretation of any other Act or any designation made thereto. SEC. 4. FILING OF MAPS AND DESCRIPTIONS. As soon as practicable after enactment of this Act, a map and legal description of each wilderness area designated in section 2 shall be filed with the Committee on Energy and Natural Resources of the Senate and Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs of the House of Representatives, and each sufch map and description shall have the same force and effect as if included in this Act.
