in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The Secretary of the Interior can set up an advisory group of up to 11 members to give advice about the historical park. The Governor of Pennsylvania recommends three members, Philadelphia's mayor recommends three, and the Carpenters' Company and Independence Hall Association each recommend one. The group's job is simply to advise the Secretary on whatever questions the Secretary raises.

This section creates an optional advisory commission for the park. The Secretary of the Interior may, at their discretion, set up an advisory commission of up to eleven members. The Secretary appoints all the members, but from specific recommendations: three recommended by the Governor of Pennsylvania, three by the mayor of Philadelphia, and one each by the Carpenters' Company of Philadelphia and the Independence Hall Association. The commission's job is to advise the Secretary from time to time, on whatever matters the Secretary chooses to bring to it.
