This bill would create the Calumet National Heritage Area, covering Lake, Porter, and LaPorte Counties in Indiana and parts of the Chicago area in Illinois, as part of the National Heritage Area System. It names the Calumet Heritage Partnership as the local group that would coordinate the area. That group would have to submit a management plan to the Secretary of the Interior for approval within 3 years. The Secretary's authority to provide assistance for the area would end 15 years after the bill becomes law.
