“H.R. 1728 establishes new procedures by which potential new additions to the National Park System are studied. The bill is identical to the language in title II of H.R. 260 from the 104th Congress. The administration and other interested parties are in general support of putting in place new procedures for the study of potential additions to the National Park System. These new procedures make a lot of sense to me. They will improve the quality of information we have on potential additions to the National Park System, as well as help prioritize our consideration of such additions. With the minor changes to the bill that were made by the Committee on Resources, I think the House should give the bill its unqualified support. I urge my colleagues to adopt this proposed bill.”
