16 U.S.C. § 430p — Right of States to enter and mark battle lines

submitted 92 years ago by ch. 694 to r/title-16-CONSERVATION · 135 words · no verdicts yet

in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

States whose troops fought at the Battle of Monocacy may enter the battlefield to find and mark their troops' battle lines. The Secretary of the Interior must approve the line locations and marking design in writing first, and no state can be treated worse than another.

Officials from any state that had troops at the Battle of Monocacy may enter the battlefield's land and approaches to find and mark where their troops fought. But before any line becomes permanent, the state must submit the line's position and its planned marking method — monuments, tablets, or otherwise, including the design and wording — to the Secretary of the Interior, and get the Secretary's written approval first. No state may be treated worse than another in how it marks its lines, and any approval given to one state may be used by any other state.
