§410nn Establishment

Summary

Creates the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park to preserve and explain seafaring Americans’ history and the Nation’s maritime heritage, with emphasis on the Pacific coast. The park includes the lands shown on the “Boundary Map, San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park,” number 641/80,053, dated April 7, 1987, which is on file at the National Park Service and the park superintendent’s office. After finishing the park’s General Management Plan, the Secretary of the Interior may add the Haslett Warehouse at Jefferson and Hyde Streets in San Francisco if it helps the park, after notifying the House Committee on Natural Resources and the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources, and may make other small boundary changes under law. The Secretary must remove the park area from the Golden Gate National Recreation Area and transfer to the new park any federal land, buildings, vessels, marine collections, libraries, historic documents, equipment, and other maritime artifacts that were managed by the Recreation Area and lie inside the park. The building that holds those collections must be named the “Sala Burton Building” and have a plaque showing that name.
