                               BACKGROUND AND NEED FOR LEGISLATION
                     Smith Gulch is a ravine located along the Salmon River corridor
                   in the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness in Idaho. The
                   Central Idaho Wilderness Act of 1979 1 designated 2.4 million acres
                   of land in the area surrounding Smith Gulch as the River of No Re-
                   turn Wilderness to be managed in accordance with the Wilderness
                   Act.2 The legislation also designated 79 miles of the Salmon River
                   as a wild river to be managed in accordance with the Wild and Sce-
                   nic Rivers Act.3
                     In 2004, Congress amended the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act to
                   authorize the continued established use and occupancy of three
