Rim of the Valley Corridor Preservation Act

HR 3874, the Rim of the Valley Corridor Preservation Act, expands the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area by formally adding the "Rim of the Valley Unit" to its boundaries. This unit consists of specific land, water, and related interests depicted on two maps (2001 and 2023), directly affecting properties within this newly defined area. The bill ensures any new land acquired for this unit is managed as part of the existing recreation area, while allowing existing water and utility facilities to operate normally - provided their activities minimize harm to the park's resources. The legislation primarily adjusts park boundaries without changing land use or creating new regulations for affected landowners.
