Bill Summary

A bill to transfer administrative jurisdiction over certain parcels of Federal land in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, and for other purposes.

AI Summary

This bill addresses a land transfer involving approximately 25 acres and 71.51 acres of federal land in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, between the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and the Secretary of the Interior. Specifically, the bill transfers administrative jurisdiction of 25 acres from the Secretary of the Interior to CBP, to be used as part of their Advanced Training Center, and simultaneously transfers 71.51 acres from CBP to the Secretary to be added to Harpers Ferry National Historical Park. The land transfer will occur without monetary compensation, and CBP is required to conduct a precise survey to finalize the exact acreage and legal description of the transferred land. Additionally, the bill includes a provision that if CBP no longer requires the 25-acre parcel for its Advanced Training Center, the land must be transferred back to the Secretary and incorporated into Harpers Ferry National Historical Park. The bill also waives an existing acreage limitation for the park, allowing the new land to be included in the park's boundary without restrictions.
