Since August 6, 1956, land-buying money for national parks can also go toward Cape Hatteras. This lets the Interior Department buy non-federal land there. Congress is allowed to appropriate funds for these purchases.

This section is a single, undivided provision. Starting August 6, 1956, any funds Congress appropriates to the Department of the Interior for buying non-federal land within National Park System areas also become available for buying non-federal land inside the Cape Hatteras National Seashore Recreational Area. The section also authorizes appropriating funds specifically to acquire that land.
