16 U.S.C. § 221b — Various laws made applicable to added lands
submitted 99 years ago by ch. 197 to r/title-16-CONSERVATION · 95 words · no verdicts yet
This law extends earlier Grand Canyon National Park laws to cover newly added land. It says the Federal Power Act does not apply to that added land.
This section applies older laws to the land that has been added to Grand Canyon National Park.
It says the rules from the 1919 Act that created Grand Canyon National Park, the 1916 Act that created the National Park Service, and any laws that later added to or changed those two Acts, now all apply to the newly added park land, the same as they apply to the rest of the park.
But there is one exception: the Federal Power Act does not apply to this newly added land.
The provisions of the Act of February 26, 1919, entitled “An Act to establish the Grand Canyon National Park in the State of Arizona,” the Act of August 25, 1916, entitled “An Act to establish a national park service, and for other purposes,” 1 and all acts supplementary to and amendatory of said Acts are made applicable to and extended over the lands hereby added to the park: Provided, That the provisions of the Federal Power Act [16 U.S.C. 791a et seq.] shall not apply to or extend over such lands.
