in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

This section protects private landowners near the park. It doesn't force them to allow public access, doesn't create new liability for injuries on their land, and doesn't change any government's power to regulate private land use there.

(a) Access to private property — Nothing in this subchapter should be read to do either of two things: (1) force a private property owner to let the public — or any federal, state, or local government — onto that owner's land; or (2) change any federal, state, or local law about public access to, or use of, private land. (b) Liability — Just because the park is designated here doesn't create any new legal liability for a private property owner. It also doesn't change any liability that owner might already have under some other law, if a person is hurt on that owner's private property. (c) Recognition of authority to control land use — Nothing in this subchapter changes any federal, state, or local government's existing power to regulate how private land is used within the park's boundary.
