16 U.S.C. § 422a–1 — Acquisition of property

The Secretary of the Interior has discretion to acquire property connected to Moores Creek National Battlefield. This includes land, buildings, structures, and other property or interests in property. The Secretary can get this property by donation, purchase, or exchange. The property must be of historical interest connected to the battlefield. The Secretary must be satisfied with the title to the property. There is a limit: the total area acquired under this section cannot exceed one hundred acres. Once the federal government acquires any such property, it becomes part of Moores Creek National Battlefield. It is then subject to all the same laws and regulations as the rest of the battlefield.
