in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

This law requires official maps and legal descriptions of the Rattlesnake areas to be filed with Congress. Once filed, these maps count as if written into the law itself. Only clerical or typing errors in them may later be corrected.

As soon as practical after October 19, 1980, the government must file a map and legal description of the Rattlesnake National Recreation Area, and a separate map and legal description of the Rattlesnake Wilderness. These go to the House Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs and the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. Once filed, the maps and descriptions carry the same legal force as if they were written directly into this law. The only changes allowed afterward are fixes to clerical and typographical errors.
