Bill > S1016

This bill modifies the boundary of Vicksburg National Military Park in Mississippi by authorizing the Secretary of the Interior to convey two parcels of Federal land to the State of Mississippi without cost. Specifically, the bill involves transferring approximately 3.66 acres of land to be used as a welcome center and approximately 6.48 acres to be used as an interpretive center or museum. Once these land parcels are transferred, the Secretary will automatically adjust the park's official boundary to reflect the conveyance. The bill is titled the "Vicksburg National Military Park Boundary Modification Act" and allows the land transfer subject to any terms and conditions the Secretary deems appropriate. The purpose appears to be facilitating state use of these specific National Park Service lands for public purposes while making a corresponding technical adjustment to the park's official boundaries.
