Redesignation and Boundary Study for Salem Maritime National Historical Park.

This Act renames the Salem Maritime National Historic Site in Massachusetts to the Salem Maritime National Historical Park, elevating its status. Furthermore, it mandates a study to evaluate the suitability of including other historical sites in Salem, related to maritime, coastal defense, or military history, into the National Park System. This potentially increases the region's tourist appeal and enhances the protection of historical heritage, which could benefit the local economy.
Key points
The existing Salem Maritime National Historic Site is officially renamed the Salem Maritime National Historical Park.
A study is ordered to evaluate the feasibility of including additional historical sites in Salem (including the Salem Armory Visitor Center) into the newly designated National Park.
The study will focus on sites associated with the maritime history, coastal defenses, and military history of the Salem area.
