Title 16 › CHAPTER 2 — NATIONAL FORESTS › SUBCHAPTER II — SCENIC AREAS › § 546a
Creates a scenic area that includes all of Saint Helena Island in Lake Michigan and any rocks, pinnacles, islands, or islets within one-eighth mile of its shore. When the scenic area is established, the Hiawatha National Forest boundary is expanded to include those lands, and those new boundaries are treated as if they existed on January 1, 1965 for the rules in section 100506 of title 54. For making payments to local governments under section 6902 of title 31, lands the United States acquires under sections 546 to 546a–5 are treated as entitlement lands.
