Notification of Boundary Revision

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior.

ACTION: Notification of boundary revision.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the boundary of the Chesapeake and 
Ohio Canal National Historical Park (Park) in Washington County, 
Maryland, is modified to include one (1) tract of land adjacent to the 
park. This revision is made to include privately-owned property that 
the National Park Service (NPS) wishes to acquire. The NPS has 
determined that the inclusion of this tract within the Park's boundary 
will make significant contributions to the purposes for which the Park 
was established. After the United States' acquisition of the tract, the 
NPS will manage the property in accordance with applicable law.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Superintendent, Chesapeake and Ohio 
Canal National Historical Park, 1850 Dual Highway, Suite 100, 
Hagerstown, Maryland 21740 or Chief, Land Resources Program Center, 
National Capital Region, 1100 Ohio Drive, SW., Washington, DC 20242.

DATES: The effective date of this boundary revision is the date of 
publication in the Federal Register.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Public Law 91-664, enacted January 8, 1971, 
authorizes the acquisition of certain lands for the Chesapeake and Ohio 
Canal National Historical Park. Section 7(c) of the Land and Water 
Conservation Fund Act, as amended by Public Law 104-333, authorizes 
minor boundary revisions to areas within the National Park System. Such 
boundary revisions may be made, when necessary, after advising the 
appropriate congressional committees, and following publication of a 
revised boundary map, drawing or other boundary description in the 
Federal Register. In order to properly interpret and preserve the 
historic character of the Park, it is necessary to revise the existing 
boundary to include one (1) additional tract of land comprising 3.75 
acres of unimproved land.
    Notice is hereby given that the exterior boundary of the Park is 
hereby revised to include one (1) additional tract of land identified 
as Tract 43-124. The parcel is a portion of the same land acquired by 
American Legion Post 202 by deed dated June 5, 1989, and recorded in 
Deed Book 01012, Page 00216, in the Land Records of Washington County, 
Maryland, subject to existing easements for public roads and highways, 
public utilities, railroads and pipelines.
    This tract of land is depicted on Segment Map 43, identified as 
Tract 43-124, dated June 1971. The map is on file and available for 
inspection in the Land Resources Program Center, National Capital 
Region, 1100 Ohio Drive, SW., Washington, DC 20242.

    Dated: July 29, 2010.
Peggy O'Dell,
Regional Director, National Capital Region.
