The Secretary of the Interior must acquire the Bloody Marsh Battle memorial site on Saint Simon Island for Fort Frederica National Monument. The Secretary can buy, condemn, or otherwise get this land, plus other nearby land needed to protect the monument, including marshland to the west. Any land gotten this way becomes part of the monument.
This section directs the Secretary of the Interior to acquire, by purchase, condemnation, or other means, the site known as the Bloody Marsh Battle memorial monument, located on Saint Simon Island, Georgia. The Secretary may also acquire additional land or interests in land beyond that site - including marshland across the river to the west of Fort Frederica National Monument - whenever the Secretary judges it would help protect the national monument. All of this remains subject to the acreage limit set in section 433g of this title. Any land or interest in land the Secretary acquires under this section becomes part of the Fort Frederica National Monument.
The Secretary of the Interior is authorized and directed to acquire by purchase, condemnation, or otherwise, subject to the acreage limitation contained in section 433g of this title, the site known as the Bloody Marsh Battle memorial monument located on Saint Simon Island, Georgia, together with such additional land, including the marshland across the river to the west of Fort Frederica National Monument, or interest in land, as in the judgment of the Secretary of the Interior might be desirable for the protection of such national monument. Such lands or interest in lands acquired by the Secretary pursuant to this section shall be made a part of the Fort Frederica National Monument.
