Harpers Ferry Land Transfer: National Park Expansion and Border Patrol Training.
This law adjusts the management of federal land in Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. Approximately 25 acres are transferred to U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) for an Advanced Training Center, removing them from the National Historical Park. Conversely, a larger area of over 71 acres is transferred to the Department of the Interior, expanding the boundaries of the Harpers Ferry National Historical Park for public and historical use.
Key points
A 25-acre parcel of land in Harpers Ferry is designated for use by U.S. Customs and Border Protection as a training facility, potentially impacting local security operations.
Over 71 acres of federal land are added to the Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, increasing the protected area available for visitors and conservation.
The land transfers occur without monetary exchange, and the CBP land will revert to the National Park if it is no longer needed for training purposes.
