Extension of National Heritage Area Support Until 2036

This act extends financial support and authorizations for numerous National Heritage Areas across the United States until September 30, 2036. This means these important historical and cultural sites will continue to receive funding for preservation, development, and educational programs, contributing to the safeguarding of local heritage and promoting tourism.
Key points
Many National Heritage Areas, such as the Illinois and Michigan Canal and Erie Canalway, will have their authorizations extended to 2036, ensuring their continued operation.
Budgets for some areas, like Rivers of Steel and Essex National Heritage Area, have been increased, allowing for greater investment in the preservation and development of these sites.
Some areas have been renamed, for example, America’s Agricultural Heritage Partnership to Silos & Smokestacks National Heritage Area, to clarify their identity.
