§410cc–21 Park Management Plan

Summary

Within two years after money is made available, the Secretary must send Congress a statement that says what has been done so far and what will be done next. The statement must report progress buying the properties listed earlier in the law and explain how those properties will be used; name park or district properties where the Secretary has made or plans to make agreements for displays or programs (see section 410cc–23(a)); report progress on leasing part of the Lowell Manufacturing Company on Market Street to make a visitors’ center near parking and transit and list any other park properties leased or planned for lease; describe any other actions taken or planned to carry out the law; and include a proposed budget for the park and preservation district for the next five fiscal years. No later than three years after funds are available, the Secretary must create and send Congress a park management plan that includes the same information. The plan must be available to the public if they ask for it. After consulting with the Commission, the Lowell city manager, and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, the Secretary may change the plan by publishing the changes in the Federal Register. Any change becomes effective 90 days after a written notice about it is sent to Congress.
