Marshall House named National Park affiliate

The law names the General George C. Marshall House in Leesburg, Virginia as an affiliated area of the National Park System. The area is the land shown on a September 2023 map numbered 999/189,974. The George C. Marshall International Center manages the site under policies that apply to National Park units. The Interior Secretary provides technical help and may fund marketing, signs, interpretation, and preservation by agreement. The Secretary must sign an agreement with the Center that spells out roles and duties.

No federal purchase or full funding of site
