Bill Summary
A bill to amend the National Trails System Act to designate the Route 66 National Historic Trail, and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill aims to designate the Route 66 National Historic Trail, a trail that includes all the alignments of U.S. Highway 66 in existence between 1926 and 1985, extending along a route of approximately 2,400 miles from Chicago, Illinois, to Santa Monica, California. The Secretary of the Interior will administer the trail in a manner that respects and maintains its unique character, and must conduct meaningful consultations with affected Native American tribes. The bill sets specific limits on land acquisition and creates no buffer zones, ensuring that the designation does not impact energy development or other activities outside the trail. It also clarifies that the designation does not require any new permits or authorities, and does not subject the trail to additional federal regulations.
