                                 AN ACT


 
 To revise the boundary of the Tumacacori National Historical Park in 
                         the State of Arizona.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

    This Act may be cited as the ``Tumacacori National Historical Park 
Boundary Revision Act of 2002''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES.

    (a) Findings.--The Congress finds the following:
            (1) Tumacacori Mission in southern Arizona was declared a 
        National Monument in 1908 in recognition of its great 
        historical significance as ``one of the oldest mission ruins in 
        the southwest''.
            (2) In establishing Tumacacori National Historical Park in 
        1990 to include the Tumacacori Mission and the ruins of the 
        mission of Los Santos Angeles de Guevavi and the Kino visita 
        and rancheria of Calabazas, Congress recognized the importance 
        of these sites ``to protect and interpret, for the education 
        and benefit of the public, sites in the State of Arizona 
        associated with the early Spanish missionaries and explorers of 
        the 17th and 18th centuries''.
            (3) Tumacacori National Historical Park plays a major role 
        in interpreting the Spanish colonial heritage of the United 
        States.
    (b) Purposes.--The purposes of this Act are--
            (1) to protect and interpret the resources associated with 
        the Tumacacori Mission by revising the boundary of Tumacacori 
        National Historical Park to include approximately 310 acres of 
        land adjacent to the park; and
            (2) to enhance the visitor experience at Tumacacori by 
        developing access to these associated mission resources.

SEC. 3. BOUNDARY REVISION, TUMACACORI NATIONAL HISTORICAL PARK, 
              ARIZONA.

    Section 1(b) of Public Law 101-344 (16 U.S.C. 410ss(b)) is 
amended--
            (1) by inserting after the first sentence the following new 
        sentence: ``The park shall also consist of approximately 310 
        acres of land adjacent to the original Tumacacori unit of the 
        park and generally depicted on the map entitled `Tumacacori 
        National Historical Park, Arizona Proposed Boundary Revision 
        2001', numbered 310/80,044, and dated July 2001.''; and
            (2) in the last sentence--
                    (A) by striking ``The map'' and inserting ``The 
                maps''; and
                    (B) by striking ``the offices'' and inserting ``the 
                appropriate offices''.

            Passed the House of Representatives January 23, 2002.

            Attest:

                                                 JEFF TRANDAHL,

                                                                 Clerk.
