Plain-English Summary

This bill would establish the Ocmulgee Mounds area in Georgia as a national park and preserve, protecting the ancient Native American ceremonial mounds and surrounding lands from development. The designation would allow the National Park Service to manage the site for public education and recreation while preserving its historical and archaeological significance for future generations. Local communities, tourists, and Native American tribes with historical ties to the area would be the primary groups affected by this change in land management.
