Bill > HR3286

This bill modifies the boundary of Mammoth Cave National Park in Kentucky by making two key changes. First, it updates a previous monetary limit of $350,000 for land acquisitions by adjusting for inflation using the Consumer Price Index published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Second, the bill authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to acquire approximately 551.14 acres of land in Edmonson and Barren Counties, which are depicted on a specific map dated May 2025, for inclusion in the national park. The proposed land addition, referred to as the 'Proposed Addition' on the map, will expand the park's southern boundary. By making these modifications, the bill aims to enhance the park's land holdings and ensure that historical monetary limits keep pace with inflation. The bill is officially titled the "Mammoth Cave National Park Boundary Adjustment Act of 2025" and represents a targeted effort to manage and potentially expand the boundaries of this important national park.
