LAND GRANT PATENT MODIFICATION -- (House of Representatives - July 10, 2007)
BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT
Mr. COLE of Oklahoma. Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.
H.R. 2121 is a simple measure that updates a land patent reference to an outdated management plan currently being used by the Great Lakes Shipwreck Historical Society. This 8-acre property was obtained in 1992 from the Department of the Interior under a land grant patent. Under the new resource management plan, the museum will be able to greatly improve its visitor access to wildlife areas and to expand its facilities to accommodate additional shipwreck exhibits.
I urge my colleagues to support the bill.
