This law expands Badlands National Park to include more scenic land. The park's boundaries are redrawn to match a specific 1967 map on file with the National Park Service. The Secretary can make small adjustments, but the park can't grow bigger than the map shows.

This section revises Badlands National Park's boundaries again, to bring in land with outstanding scenic and scientific value. The new boundaries are the ones generally shown on a specific map, titled "Badlands National Monument," numbered NM–BL–7021B, dated August 1967. That map is kept on file and open for public inspection at the National Park Service offices, part of the Department of the Interior. The Secretary of the Interior may make minor adjustments to these boundaries. But no matter what adjustments are made, the park's total acreage may never exceed the acreage shown within the boundaries on that 1967 map. Any land within the park's boundaries that the United States acquires becomes subject to the same laws and regulations that apply to the rest of the park.
