Ocmulgee Mounds National Park and Preserve Establishment Act

Bill 118 hr 8182, also known as the Ocmulgee Mounds National Park and Preserve Establishment Act, is a piece of legislation introduced in the US Congress. The bill aims to establish the Ocmulgee Mounds National Park and Preserve in the state of Georgia.

The Ocmulgee Mounds National Park and Preserve would be dedicated to preserving and protecting the cultural and historical significance of the Ocmulgee Mounds National Historical Park. The park would encompass a large area of land that includes ancient Native American mounds, ceremonial sites, and other archaeological features.

The bill outlines the boundaries of the proposed national park and preserve, as well as the management and preservation guidelines that would be put in place to protect the site. It also designates certain areas within the park as wilderness areas, which would be protected from development and other activities that could harm the natural and cultural resources of the park. If passed, the Ocmulgee Mounds National Park and Preserve Establishment Act would provide funding and resources for the establishment and maintenance of the park, as well as for educational programs and visitor services. The bill has received bipartisan support in Congress and is seen as a positive step towards preserving an important piece of American history.
