in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The Secretary of the Interior may buy or accept land for a new eastern entrance to Rocky Mountain National Park. This covers specific parcels totaling about 145 acres. It also includes a strip of land near the Big Thompson River.

The Secretary of the Interior may acquire land and land interests — by donation, by donated funds, by purchase with federal funds, or another way the Secretary chooses — to build an appropriate eastern entrance road to the park. This applies to specific parcels in township 5 north, range 73 west (sixth principal meridian): parts of sections 27, 34, and 35 that lie south of the current Highdrive Road right-of-way, and parts of sections 34 and 35 that lie north and west of the Big Thompson River's left bank. Together these parcels total about 145 acres. It also covers a strip of land — no more than about 500 feet wide on average — that generally runs alongside the Big Thompson River for about 1.6 miles, starting near the center of section 25 (same township and range) and ending at the 145-acre tract described above.
