in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The Secretary of the Interior can acquire private land inside the historic site's new boundaries. The Secretary picks whatever method serves the public interest. This lets the site actually gain the added acres.

The Secretary of the Interior may acquire non-Federal land, and interests in that land, that sits inside the revised boundaries of Fort Vancouver National Historic Site. The Secretary chooses how to acquire it, as long as the Secretary judges the method to be in the public interest. The section does not name a specific acquisition method; it leaves that choice to the Secretary.
