submitted 66 years ago by Pub. L. 86-387 to r/title-16-CONSERVATION · 218 words · no verdicts yet
This law expands Zion National Park's boundaries in Utah. It lists specific plots of land, described by township, section, and lot numbers, that become part of the park. The land covers areas in five different townships.
This section adds new land to Zion National Park in Utah, using the "Salt Lake Meridian" surveying system as its reference point.
The added land is described by township, range, section, and "lot" — small numbered subdivisions within a section. It covers parts of five townships:
Township 39 south, range 10 west: part of section 30 (the portions of certain lots lying south of Kolob Creek, plus other lots) and part of section 31.
Township 41 south, range 10 west: parts of sections 28, 29, 31, and 32, including a lot whose ownership is recorded in Washington County, Utah deed records.
Township 39 south, range 11 west: small parts of sections 13 and 32.
Township 40 south, range 11 west: part of section 5.
Township 38 south, range 12 west: part of section 29, specifically the portion lying east of the U.S. Highway 91 right-of-way line, defined as 150 feet from the highway's centerline.
These parcels are now included within the park's official boundary.
The boundaries of the Zion National Park are revised to include the following described lands:
