Bill > HR6307

This bill, the Finger Lakes National Heritage Area Study Act, authorizes the Secretary of the Interior to conduct a study to assess the suitability and feasibility of designating certain land in New York, including the counties of Cayuga, Chemung, Cortland, Livingston, Monroe, Onondaga, Ontario, Schuyler, Seneca, Steuben, Tioga, Tompkins, Wayne, and Yates, as the Finger Lakes National Heritage Area. The study will analyze whether the area has natural, historic, and cultural resources that represent distinctive aspects of U.S. heritage, reflect valuable traditions and customs, provide opportunities for conservation and recreation, and have the support of local communities and potential management entities. The Secretary must report the study's findings and recommendations to Congress within 3 years.
