Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would allow the Secretary of the Interior to acquire about 6,100 acres of land next to Big Bend National Park in Texas, shown on a 2022 map. The land could only be acquired through donation or exchange. Once land is acquired, the Secretary would expand the park boundary to include it and manage it as part of the park under existing laws. The Secretary could not use eminent domain or condemnation to take land, and the map would be available for public inspection at National Park Service offices.
