in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The Secretary manages Padre Island land under general National Park Service rules. He can also use other legal powers to conserve natural resources. He uses those extra powers whenever they help this law's purposes.

This section has no lettered subsections. Except where this law says otherwise, the Secretary must administer property acquired under sections 459d through 459d–7 following the 1916 Act that created the National Park Service, and other general laws covering areas the Secretary runs through the National Park Service. But the Secretary may also use any other legal authority available to him for conserving and managing natural resources, whenever he decides that authority will help further this law's purposes.
