Vicksburg National Military Park Boundary Modification Act
This bill transfers approximately 10.14 acres of federal land within Vicksburg National Military Park to the State of Mississippi for public use. Specifically, it conveys a 3.66-acre parcel for a welcome center and a 6.48-acre parcel for an interpretive center, museum, or similar public facility. The Secretary of the Interior must convey this land without charge and then adjust the park's boundary to reflect the transfer. The bill directly affects the State of Mississippi, enabling it to develop these specific parcels for visitor services within the park. The change modifies the park's legal boundary to remove the transferred lands from federal ownership.
