Point Spencer Coast Guard and Public-Private Sector Infrastructure Development Facilitation and Land Conveyance Act - Designates certain land at Point Spencer in Alaska (a parcel of land on which a decommissioned long range radio navigation station was located) to be: (1) retained by the Coast Guard; (2) conveyed to, or leased by, the state of Alaska; and (3) conveyed to the Bering Straits Native Corporation (BSNC) (a corporation authorized to represent and manage land and resources from the settlement of aboriginal claims of indigenous Alaska Natives in the Bering Strait region). Requires the Secretary of the department in which the Coast Guard is operating to retain an easement authorizing public aircraft to use all existing and future airstrips, runways, and taxiways on a specified tract of such land at no cost. Defines "public aircraft" as any aircraft owned by, operated by, or chartered by the United States or by a contractor of the United States for the performance of a federal contract on or from Point Spencer. Sets forth requirements concerning: (1) conveyed lands that are leased back to the Coast Guard upon the Secretary's request, (2) airspace easements, and (3) rights-of-way on roads to and from airstrips. Requires the United States to retain the authority to enforce archaeological and historic preservation laws on certain land. Directs the Secretary, the state of Alaska, and the BSNC to develop a joint management plan for the use and management of the lands retained, conveyed, or leased under this Act.
