Bill > S491

This bill amends the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act to designate certain river segments in the York River watershed in the State of Maine as components of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System. The bill outlines the specific segments of the York River and its tributaries, totaling approximately 30.8 miles, that will be administered by the Secretary of the Interior as a recreational river. The bill also establishes the management of the designated river segments, including the use of an existing stewardship plan, coordination with a local stewardship committee, and restrictions on land acquisition and condemnation. Additionally, the bill specifies that the designated river segments will not be administered as a unit of the National Park System.
