§460yy Establishment

Summary

Creates the City of Rocks National Reserve to protect important historical and cultural sites, manage recreation, keep the scenery, and explain why the area is nationally important. The reserve covers approximately 14,320 acres shown on the map titled "Boundary Map, City of Rocks National Reserve, Idaho," number P30–80,005, dated October 1987. That map is kept at the National Park Service and in the office of the Governor of Idaho. The Secretary of the Interior must file a legal description of the reserve within six months after November 18, 1988, with the House Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs and the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. That description has the same legal effect as if written into the law. The Secretary may correct clerical and typographical errors in the description and the map. The legal description must be available for public inspection at the National Park Service and the Governor’s office.
