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 transfers administrative jurisdiction of two parcels of federal land in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia, between the Department of the Interior (DOI) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). Specifically, it transfers approximately 25 acres from DOI to CBP for use as part of its Advanced Training Center, and simultaneously transfers approximately 71.51 acres from CBP to DOI to be incorporated into the Harpers Ferry National Historical Park. The land transfer will occur without monetary compensation, and the Commissioner of CBP is required to obtain a precise land survey to finalize the exact acreage and legal description. If CBP determines that the transferred land is no longer needed for its training center, the land will revert to DOI and be added back to the park. The bill also waives a previous acreage limitation for the park, allowing these land transfers without restriction. Key terms are defined in the bill, including references to a specific May 2021 map that depicts the proposed land transfers and clarifies the roles of the Secretary of the Interior and the Commissioner of CBP in this process.
