Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would add the Washington Spy Ring National Historic Trail to the National Trails System. The trail would run about 50 miles along local streets and New York Route 25A, from Great Neck to Port Jefferson, through Nassau and Suffolk Counties on Long Island's North Shore. It would mark sites tied to the Culper Spy Ring, which gathered intelligence for George Washington during the Revolutionary War. The trail would be managed by the North Shore Promotion Alliance, a tax-exempt organization, in cooperation with the Secretary of the Interior. The bill also fixes a numbering error in the existing law.
