Bill Summary

A bill to designate the mountain at the Devils Tower National Monument, Wyoming, as Devils Tower, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill formally designates the mountain located at Devils Tower National Monument in Wyoming, specifically at geographical coordinates 44°35'26"N, 104°42'55"W, and a nearby area at coordinates 44°35'21"N, 104°41'48"W, as "Devils Tower". While this might seem like a minor legislative action, the bill ensures that all future government documents, maps, regulations, orders, and records will officially refer to this landmark using the name "Devils Tower". This means that any existing references to alternative names for the mountain will be automatically interpreted as referring to "Devils Tower". The bill appears to be a clarification and standardization measure that provides official legal recognition to the already commonly used name of this prominent geographical feature, which is a significant natural landmark in Wyoming and a well-known national monument.
