Boundary Revision

AGENCY: National Park Service, Department of the Interior.

ACTION: Notification of Boundary Revision.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Notice is hereby given that the boundary of Virgin Islands 
National Park is modified to include one tract of land adjacent to the 
park. This revision is made to include privately owned property that 
the landowners wish to donate to the United States. The National Park 
Service has determined that inclusion of the tract within the park's 
boundary will make significant contributions to the purposes for which 
the park was established. After the United States acquires the tracts, 
the National Park Service will manage them in accordance with 
applicable law.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: National Park Service, Mark Hardgrove, 
Superintendent, Virgin Islands National Park, 1300 Cruz Bay Creek, St. 
John, V.I. 00830.

DATES: The effective date of this boundary revision is the date of 
publication in the Federal Register.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Act of August 2, 1956, 70 Stat. 940, 
codified as amended at 16 U.S.C. 398, established the Virgin Islands 
National Park and provides that after advising the House Committee on 
Natural Resources and the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural 
Resources, the Secretary of the Interior is authorized to make these 
boundary revisions. This action will add one tract comprising 2.21 
acres of land, more or less, to the Virgin Islands National Park. The 
acquisition of this tract is required to maintain the park's natural 
and ecological integrity. The tract is listed as follows: Estate 
Concordia A, 15A Coral Bay Quarter, Parcel 30-3, comprising 2.21 acres. 
The referenced tract is depicted on land acquisition status map segment 
07, having drawing number 161/92,009. This map is on file at the 
National Park Service, Land Resources Program Center, Southeast Region, 
and at the Office of the Superintendent, Virgin Islands National Park.
