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