§90e–2 Map and Legal Description, Filing with Congressional Committees; Correction of Errors; Applicability of Wilderness Act

Summary

As soon as possible after October 2, 1968, the Secretary of Agriculture must file a map and a written legal description of the Pasayten Wilderness and the additions to the Glacier Peak Wilderness with the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources and the House Committee on Natural Resources. Those maps and descriptions will have the same legal effect as if they were printed in the law, and small clerical or typing errors in them may be corrected. After those maps and descriptions are filed, the Secretary of Agriculture must manage the Pasayten Wilderness and the Glacier Peak additions under the Wilderness Act and follow the rules that apply to places the Wilderness Act calls wilderness areas. If the Wilderness Act refers to its own effective date, treat that as a reference to the effective date of this subchapter.
