in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The United States accepted a conditional grant of exclusive jurisdiction over part of Hot Springs National Park used as a public campground, based on a specific boundary description and a 1925 Arkansas law. The same rules that apply to the nearby Hot Springs Mountain Reservation now extend to this campground land.

This section describes a specific piece of Hot Springs National Park — the public campground area — using a detailed boundary that runs from a stone marker at the corner of section 33, east and north along set distances and lines, to the park's east boundary and back to the starting point, all in Garland County, Arkansas. Arkansas conditionally ceded and granted the United States exclusive jurisdiction over this land under a state law approved March 27, 1925. This section accepts that cession and grant. It also extends to this campground land the same rules that section 376 of this title applies to the Hot Springs Mountain Reservation in Arkansas.
