16 U.S.C. § 460m–3 — Establishment; notice in Federal Register; alteration of boundaries; acreage limitation

Once enough land has been bought to run the area properly, the Secretary announces the Ozark National Scenic Riverways in the Federal Register. The Secretary can later change the boundaries. But the riverway can never total more than 65,000 acres, not counting donated or transferred federal land.

Once the Secretary decides the United States has acquired enough land, water, or interests in them to form a workable unit, the Secretary must officially declare the Ozark National Scenic Riverways established. This is done by publishing a notice in the Federal Register. After that, the Secretary can change the boundaries from time to time. There's one hard limit: the riverway's total acreage can never exceed 65,000 acres. Land donated by the State of Missouri or its local governments, and federal land transferred under section 460m–1, don't count toward that 65,000-acre cap.

When the Secretary determines that lands and waters, or interests therein, have been acquired by the United States in sufficient quantity to provide an administrable unit, he shall declare establishment of the Ozark National Scenic Riverways by publication of notice in the Federal Register. The Secretary may thereafter alter such boundaries from time to time, except that the total acreage in the Ozark National Scenic Riverways shall not exceed sixty-five thousand acres, exclusive of land donated by the State of Missouri or its political subdivisions and of federally owned land transferred pursuant to section 460m–1 of this title.
