What changed between these versions

A small clarification. Section 1(a) was modified to simplify the land descriptions for both National Forest System and National Park System land transfers, removing detailed metes and bounds and relying solely on the referenced map. The bill's core purpose of transferring administrative jurisdiction remains unchanged.

Overview

A single, focused change affecting two related subsections. · The overall direction of the changes is to clarify and streamline the method of describing the land parcels, moving from a detailed textual description to a primary reliance on a referenced map.

The primary change in v2 is the simplification of the land descriptions in Section 1(a), which outlines the transfer of administrative jurisdiction over certain federal land. Both subsections 1(a)(1) and 1(a)(2) now refer exclusively to the "Ackerson Meadow Land Interchange" map dated February 24, 2022, for the land's description, removing the specific metes and bounds previously included. This change streamlines the legal language without altering the fundamental land transfer mechanism or the designated parcels.
