This law lets Congress fund road repairs and land protection near several national parks, including Olympic, Glacier, Grand Teton, Yellowstone, and Yosemite. It also funds a water line partly outside Mesa Verde National Park's boundaries. Subsections (b) through (g) were repealed in 2014.

(a) Congress may spend money on protecting and fixing roads connected to national parks. This includes protecting the Ocean Strip and Queets Corridor near Olympic National Park in Washington. It includes repairing roads from Glacier Park Station through the Blackfeet Indian Reservation to Glacier National Park in Montana, up to the international boundary. It includes repairing about two and seventy-seven hundredths miles of road from U.S. Highway 187 to the north entrance of Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming. It includes maintaining approach roads through Lassen National Forest that lead to Lassen Volcanic National Park in California. It includes maintaining and repairing the Generals Highway between Sequoia National Park and the Grant Grove section of Kings Canyon National Park, both in California. It includes maintaining about two and one-fourth miles of roads that make up the Fresno-Kings Canyon approach road, the Park Ridge Lookout Road, and the Ash Mountain-Advance truck trail, which are needed to run and protect Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks. It includes maintaining roads in the national forests leading out of Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana. It includes maintaining the road in Stanislaus National Forest that connects the Tioga Road with the Hetch Hetchy Road near Mather Station in Yosemite National Park, California. It includes maintaining and repairing the approach road to the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument in Montana, and the road connecting that monument to the Reno Monument site. It includes repairing and maintaining about 5.3 miles of a "class C" road between the edge of Coronado National Forest and the point where it enters Coronado National Memorial near Montezuma Pass. (b) to (g) These subsections are repealed. Congress removed them in a 2014 law (Public Law 113-287, section 7, December 19, 2014, 128 Stat. 3272). (h) Congress may spend money to acquire rights-of-way and to build and maintain a water supply line. Part of this water line runs outside the boundaries of Mesa Verde National Park.
